Well, thats the joy of 64 bit you are able to process 64 bit and 32 bit
code. Oh wait, there still isn't AntiVirus for XP Pro 64, but company's such
as Symantec and MacAfee promise to update there current crop of security
utilities just in time for the release of Windows XP Pro x64. I probably
expect the same from Microsoft. Who knows, they might be doing that for beta
2.

Hi Wayne,
Haven't heard a peep. Watching these groups wouldn't be a bad place to see
any news about it tho.

Been running it under 64 bit edition for several weeks with no problems
until today and the bug is not associated with the 64 bit OS.

I've yet to hear of any bug associated with running Microsoft Antispyware on
a 64 bit platform. One user reported a DEP violation during the .501 to
..509 upgrade process, but that issue was also reported on 32-bit.
