Vista - Which anti-virus/security suite

[smithsi]

I'm due to receive a new PC with Vista bundled as well as a free copy from Microsoft for attending one of their developer launches.

Previously I've used Zone Labs Zone Alarm which has been fairly good after falling out with Symantec when they launched an upgrade which wouldn't install and no amount of tweaking/speaking to tech support could I get used to it.

For those that have already gone with Vista, which anti-virus are people using?

[smithsi]

Yes, apparantly no support from Zone Labs is very fustrating and no indication of when a Vista release will come means that I think that will be it for Zone Alarm for me (I suspect they will lose loads of business to other vendors in the meantime).

Heard of a few problems with Avast in a review.

Sophos are unfortunately out although I do rate them, due to the fact that they cost 10 times the price of all other vendors because they only appear to sell in bulk (5 licences).

Symantec produce very bloaty software in my experience, which is a bitch to uninstall if you want to do so. Having said that the stuff does work and is ready for Vista.

I'm wondering about one of the other vendors, looked Fsecure which is rated by PC pro.

I use Kapserksy, which is very slick. Windows Live OneCare looks pretty good too, believe it or not.

I've discounted Windows Live OneCare since it failed recent virus tests miserably and deleted valid emails
