I purchase the software (disc) and wanted to know how to install security

compatible.

Hi,

This version isn't compatible for sure - you have to buy upgrade to newest
version (2007).

Don't use McAfee or Norton. The Visa firewall is fine. For AV use Avast
(free and my first choice), AVG (free) or the excellent NOD32 (not free).

For spyware and other non viral malware there is Windows Defender. You can
also use Ad-Aware, Spybot S&D, and Spyware Blaster.

Tony,

Why did you purchase the software without attempting to determine whether or
not it is compatible with Vista?
