The Russian anti-virus vendor Doctor Web launches beta-testing of Dr.Web Security Space compatible with Windows 7 RC. This single-user anti-virus product provides a comprehensive solution to the problem of viruses and spam.

Dr.Web Security Space incorporates all components required to provide reliable multi-level anti-virus security.

Will the beta support the 64 bit operating system? Don't want to register if it won't.

Yes, lots of BSOD reported on beta forum.

But some users have had more luck with Windows 7 RC 7100 than later versions.
