I've noticed a lot of AV on 64 bit machines is 32 bit software with 64 bit drivers.They claim it is just a effective and there is no reason to go full 64 bit. Maybe when Windows 8 comes out and there is no more 32 bit they won't have any more excuses.

WHy dose real-time-checking or file-scanning need to be native 64bit
Please list some advantages over 32 bit with real time checking and file scanning.

Last note: The reason 32 bit anti virus installs 64bit drivers is to scan the larger 64bit memory addresses.
