Antivirus software inluding firewall for Vista 64-bit

M

Marcus

Does anybody know any antivirus software (full protection packagae including
firewall) able to work with Vista Home Premium 64-bit?

Having purchased Vista in April, first I used GData. After a couple o f
weeks some problems with its firewall module occurred. The GData technical
support advised me to remove the complete software and reinstall GData
without the firewall module. Since then I have been using GData without the
firewall module although I have paid for a full protection package! And the
GData support has never contacted me again though they promissed me to
analyse my problem and to come back with a solution.

According to what I was able to find out, the Norton Internet Secuirty does
not support Vista 64-bit.

AVG and NOD32 both support Vista 64 but in 32bit mode with 64bit
extentions - there are (as far as I know) no 64bit AV software out there

Pandasoftware.com for Titanium with firewall.

Kaspersky Internet Security - firewall/AV/anti-spyware. Works great under
Vista x64 and is very secure. Or if you are just after AV, look at
Kaspersky Anti-Virus.

I know I'm going to get flak for recommending it, but I'm using it (32-bit)
and it works great! Nothing like Norton of the past.

Norton 360 supports 64-bit:

Operating Systems Supported
WindowsR XP Home/XP Pro/XP Media 2005+ 32 bit, Windows VistaT Home Basic/
Home Premium/Business/Ultimate 32 and 64 bit***
***Additional Windows Vista Requirements
Must meet minimum Windows Vista operating system requirements
Phishing protection feature available only on 32 bit Explorer

An interesting article for you to read. Avast now supports Vista 64 bit
version.

No firewall, but I like Vista'a firewall anyway.

The 32 bit version is brilliant, and was great in XP as well.
It runs rings around Norton, Trend Micro, etc.

Avast was one of the first to release a proper x64 version, and like the
32-bit version, it's great and it's free.

I used to use ZonAlarm with it, but give that the Vista firewall is now
two-way, I don't bother using anything else.
