Vista and Antivirus Applications

I have used KAV 6 in my PC with windows XP SP2 installed,it

was fast and work without any problem but a few days ago i

install windows vista on my PC for test ,it has a great look

and work flawlessly until i install KAV 6.0.2.614 final and it

slow down PC to crawl starting any application or opening

of any window take ages.Anyway I uninstall KAV completely and

install NOD32 2.7 but it was even worse (Like old days with

NAV 2005 ) .Is this a case with anyone or just me? which one

of other first class antivirus Apps you recommended for

vista ( without slowdown of course ).

Sorry for my english.

 

That's strange...
On my comp (Sempron 2500+, 512 Mb & Aero) Vista work very good with NOD32 and a little slow with KIS 6.0.2.614.

 

You can try AVG 7.5, its vista compatible and free

 

if it was ok on XP and crawling on vista, maybe .. just maybe, your machine cant really handle vista.

 

Wife just got a new PC yesterday with Vista (Home Premium) installed.
I put NOD32 on the machine and there is no slowdown at all.

 

I don't think so

My PC configuration:

But anyway thanks for replies,I think i must return to windows XP

 

ok, i dont know what it is then...

your first post never gave details of your system

 

Vista 64 & Nod running very fine here

 

If it was an upgrade from XP to Vista then this could be the problem . Corrupted XP made Vista not running well . This has happened to old upgrades (e.g. 2000->XP or 98->XP) and will happen ~forever~ . Clean install is all you need , clean install of Vista with hard drive format

 

Hi

Thanks for suggestion,but I have installed vista on a formated clean PC.

 

well, i dont think dell will deliver my vista till probably march,

and if dr.web dont have a vista compat product by then, i will be using my AVG suite which is on my PC, is anyone using it on vista, how does it cope, run well?, any details appreciated.

I have Vista Home Premium running on my very basic Compaq laptop and Nod32 is running as it did with WinXP, fast and stable. I am waiting for Dell to ship my vista upgrade disc to see how it runs on my Core 2 Duo machine.
