| Guest | Re: Virus Protection Matthew: There are many anti-virus programs that are compatible with Vista. I use Nod32 without any problems or conflicts with Windows x64, Vista x86 and Vista x64. Also Avast (free), AVG, Norton 2007, McAfee Enterprise and CA have compatible.

| Guest | RE: Virus Protection Stay away from Bitdefender and PC Security Shield. They don't work. I tried and uninstalled them both. Stay with Avast or simialr.
