Hey,
Simple Question, but I can't find the answer:

Is AVG 64bit?

Thanks

Re: AVG and Vista x64bit

If you are running it, look in task manager.

Re: AVG and Vista x64bit

Pro version trial will run, but you must start the control centre manually
every time you reboot - not confidence inspiring!

No. It is a 32bit antivirus program. Does it run on a 64 bit platform?
Some versions do, some don't. Since I don't use that antivirus on my
Vista 64, I can't say if the current version is working on this platform
or not. Sorry.

Paid versions work on x64, Sharon.
