    Posted: 15 May 2008 at 12:25pm
Hi guys, can any of you recommend a good antivirus for Vista 64 bit.  I was looking online and see a number of them arent compatible with the 64 bit Vista.  I get a free Mcafee with my ISP but of course it doesn't work with Vista 64.  I haven't shopped for a program in years since I always had Mcafee for free and just used that.  Anyone have a 64 compatible AV they love?

That would be "Avast ye, matey!"  And, my connection to the Pirate community is shouldn't be a threat.  We are a peaceful lot.

Now, go shiver yer timber somewhere else!

ESET Security Suite is what I use for anti-virus and firewall. Heart it. ESET also allows users to use the same product key in two or more operating systems as long as it's on the same computer. You can't go wrong with that if you dual boot.

As TL already said, ESET's Nod32 is the best anti virus you will find. you can get the security suite which will have a firewall, but their firewall is not as good as their anti virus
