Anti-Virus and Vista

I was using Windows OneCare before installing Vista. What ant-virus programs
are currently compatible with Vista?

Re: Anti-Virus and Vista

The "free" CA software is asking me for permission to load the CA Tray every
boot. Then I get a screen that says it's shutting down due to a unknown
problem. I can't wait for Norton '07...
