Just released a new version and it doesn't work on Vista :rotfl:
And companies wonder why people don't but their products :hmm:

You could flip that around and say "that's why no one is buying vista" :lol:

Thanks. I use it since years. Together with Spybot and A-square it makes a nice combo to actively scan the system once a week. Last time i did, I got no alarm for a Vista-infection. :)

Hardly any antivirus/ad aware works with vista at the moment!

Is it microsoft saying no can do we want our vista users to run our product instead of yours? I would of thought Zonealarm would be the first to have a security suite out for vista. They just put out a beta.

This seems to be a GUI type error, not a scanning type error.

There is a way to get it working - something to do wih switching off Aero, but not 100% sure on it. I only quickly checked their support forums for Vista issues.

Absolutely. That is a good combo. :yep: And no Vista is good. :up:

NOD32 was the first antivirus product to release |A WORKING| program for vista, the others followed. But, there is no 100% protection available for vista due to it's kernel patch guard or something, and M$ refuses to allow these programs exclusive control/protection of it!:damn:

Okay, with this new version out, lets have a contest in having the most frakked up computer. My scan revealed ...

240 tracking cookies. Not bad, but not a winner, I reckon.
