    Computer Security Software needed

    I had to uninstall Nortan Antivirus because it was conflicting with Vista Windows Mail. I've read that it is a common problem.

    So I am looking for recommendations on free anti-virus software. I would prefer to hear from anyone who is running Windows Vista.

    Thanks...

    You had me until you said Vista.

    I've been using Avast! for a couple of years now with zero issues on XP. I'm sure they have a Vista version.

    em69, I don't have vista but I use AVG, and again they'll most likely have a Vista version. I'm avoiding Vista like the plague.

    I use AVG, the freebie. Seems fine to me. I also run Zone Alarm Firewall, again the free version.
    My opinions are my own, I do not follow others.
