| Guest | RE: Antivirus No. Windows Vista does not have AV built in. You need to get a package that works with Vista. Most of the vendors, such as McAfee, Symantec, Trend, CA, Sophos, F-Secure, and so on all have AV that works with Vista now.

You should have removed the AV program before doing the update. You need to uninstall it, and hopefully it will uninstall. Vista does not come with an AV program, it comes with Defender which is for non viral malware. You do need to run an AV program that is compatible with Vista. There are several available among which are Avast and AVG (both free), and NOD32. -- Rock [MS-MVP User/Shell] |

| Guest | Re: Antivirus Best one based on feedback...... Nod32 right now .... Trend's PcCillian is a bit hoggy honestly and their CSM suite doesn't support Vista yet.

| Guest | Re: Antivirus Dude The At&T software that you have is incompatible with Vista, per AT&T. New update will be available sometime in March or early April. They didn't seem to think anyone was going to use Vista and are way behind. The only choice you have to you something free for the time being and notify AT&T that you want an upgrade disk sent to you when it is available. Good luck.
