Has anyone got an AV product installed on RC2? I have tried most, none are
compatible and Vista wont allow installation. Even MS's own Windows Live AV solution isn't compatible yet... So far I have tried AVG, Trend, and CA, the free versions, all betas by the way... none would install on RC2. Cheddarhead

I had Enterprise installed on the post RC1 interim build, and it does not
always run on RC2. In fact, the active scan will not stay enabled. Well, Microsoft has just released the Windows Live One Care 1.5 beta, which is premised to work on the RC1 build (as well as the XP-SP2 OS). I have been able to install and run on RC2 with no issues. Looks like 180 days w/o activation (nice that I can rely on something that is being developed in parallel with Vista - good way to build customer loyalty) -- John PC: (XPS Gen 1) laptop Mem 1 gb processor P4 3.4 Video ATI 9800 256 MB Vista RC2 build 5744 Base score 4.3 "F.C.telefonica" wrote: hi, use Avast & forget Symantec products ! ciao "Cheddarhead" wrote in message ...

AVG from Grisoft works fine for my RC1. Avast wouldn't install for me, even
though I've used it for years on XP HE. TTFN. -- There are three types of people in computing, those that can count and those that can't.

I'm using MS Live OneCare Beta for Vista. It is advertised for RC1 but I
successfully installed it on RC2. Just make sure you uninstall any other AV first before installing OneCare. It seems to work fine. . .
