Re: help with virus protection and dual core amd 4400

People have reported issues with that AV on Vista x64, I would recommend
trying something.

Re: help with virus protection and dual core amd 4400

Supposedly the next version of OneCare will work under Vista x64.

Until then the only package I've seen works well with Vista x64, is the
Symantec stuff which is still in EARLY beta.

Re: help with virus protection and dual core amd 4400

Windows Live OneCare 1.5, only supports Vista x86 at the moment. Nic, have
you checked Avast! to see if they have anything. I just got in the Symantec
Beta yesterday, so I haven't been able to download and try their products on
Vista x64. But I am sure once Vista RTMs, there will be a plethora of AV
utilities on market to support both platforms.

Re: help with virus protection and dual core amd 4400

That's why I said supposedly the next version will. 1.5 is the current
version.

RE: help with virus protection and dual core amd 4400

I have not been able to load McAfee, the one that comes with Comcast
subscription. I figure it's not Vista ready. Other than that, Vista has been
the smoothest beta I have ever tested; I've tested all since W95.
