You'll need to use another antivirus program like Avast which works fine in x64 versions. Now if you have the regular 32-bit Vista installed, then like the others said, the current version of AVG free works fine and you'll need to provide more information like the error you see when trying to install. |

| | Re: AVG I used to use a paid version of AVG and from the start, I was informed by Vista Home Premium that it was not compatible. And yes ironically, the free version of Avg is compatible from what I hear. I switched to Norton 2007 Anti-Virus.
