WHY? I know this may seem like a dumb question, but do you have all the latest updates (both program and definitions?) It's been my experience in the past that either can cause Vista to think it's unprotected. CA should register with Vista just fine--as it's listed on Vista's official security page. |

of the few anti viruses that works with vista and is recommended by vista.
