None of these version appears to be Vista compatible, though post on the Wilders Secuirty Forum say 2.7 is compatible with VistaSP1.

We run it on Exchange Servers, F&P servers as well as desktops. v2.7 is a lovely, tight piece of code. v3 is OK.. but we've had problems with it, so often find downgrading to 2.7 is the answer. From what I've read here, it appears that we have an easier time than others; as we generally manage the registering, purchasing and downloading for the clients. I have to admit that I think their partner scheme works well for consultancies such as ours... I just hope v3 becomes what 2.7 is.. a great, fast, lightweight and effective av and anti malware system.

As a long term AVG fan eset is a nice change for once. Very basic interface easy to understand and set-up. Firewalls are never easy to set-up or understand,but with the auto mode makes it easy until you learn it. The only down side,I wish it had a learning mode. Anti spam works for me. Yes,it's not cheap for sure and there are free firewall out there at are pretty good, but going with smart security at least you can get it all in one package and have it work together to protect your computer system.

For the past two years, I've used a combination of AVG and Ad-aware on my home network (3 PCs). In that time my network encountered one virus attack and two malware attacks. Each time my response included restoring the Windows partition (C: drive) with Acronis True Image to ensure that the users were working with uncorrupted software. The virus attack was found by AVG, but only after the virus installed itself on the hard drive. The two malware attacks were found by Ad-aware, but only after noting odd behavior and scanning the PC. After the most recent attack (last week), I looked around for a more pro-active solution. Research included Scot's Newsletter plus the recommendations of a couple other sources. As a result, I installed Nod32 trial version 3.0 on all PCs. It was such a positive experience that I paid for a two year subscription and updated Nod32 on all PCs with the username and password that ESET sent me. Shortly after that, a new "License valid until" line appeared on the "Protection Status" page of Nod32. As a college student, my daughter computes in one of the most hostile environments around. It was her experience that really drove me to look for a more pro-active solution. It'll be interesting to see if Nod 32's content filtering approach can help her practice "safe computing."

The newest version which I just downloaded and installed on a fresh build of Vista has a new GUI which seems to address some of the more acrane settings of the old one.

But there are problems with purchasing NOD32. I've never heard of the installation issue that bgrimwade experienced, but I'm wondering if he ran the trial of version 2.5. Eset recommended that people not upgrade 2.5 and previous versions to the paid version. The direction at that time was to uninstall your trial installation first and then download and install the paid version.
