    Vista 64 internet security package?

    Hi,
    I'm feeling a bit exposed just using the Windows Firewall, if it was as good
    as they make out, there wouldn't be one in LiveOne Care (which stupidly
    doesn't support 64bit editions of their own OS). So I'm trying to find a
    good package to protect my PC, does anyone have any ideas if such a package
    is available?
    Thanks in Advance,
    Wally Riley

    If all you want is a firewall the one built-into Vista is better than the one
    in OneCare. It is anyone's guess why Microsoft can't be coordinated enough to
    stop wasting effort at building multiple versions of the same feature in
    several different places.

    All you really need is an AV package. Here are a few for 64-bit:
