| Guest | Anti Viruses Just got Vista RC1 Build 5600 and I have been trying to find an anti virus that works with Vista, normally I use Norton Internet Security 2006, but i am hesitant to install it as I am not sure if it works with Vista. And I havent seen any Norton beta versions for vista , or at least I have not been offered a chance to beta test it as of yet. Can anyone suggest any that work with Vista RC1??? Mark |

| Guest | Re: Anti Viruses Hey Bill, I am actually impressed with OneCare. How about you? Have you seen where it's actually caught a virus?

| Guest | Re: Anti Viruses Yoshi, Yes, I find it to be perfect for what I do. I don't hear from it, or see it unless it detects an issue. Which is the way it should be. Very little CPU and RAM overhead currently. So far I've only tested some sample viruses, but nothing real... which is fine by me!

It's free for home users. And works with RC1 and 2 X86 and x64. http://www.avast.com/eng/avast_4_home.html -- Scott http://angrykeyboartder.com A: Because it messes up the order in which people normally read text. Q: Why is top-posting such a bad thing? |
