Norton Retail supplied with Vista Retail (premium) just keeping hammering the disk drive. Symantec is silent. I took this off and put on the Corporate version and this works!, but of course this is not licensed, so I took it off!.
I have tried AVG Personal (free) works fine and so does the Business version.
Come on Symantec stop hiding behind the statement" Microsoft would give us the code to allow the codes to run our scanner efficently".
The other products on the market work. Microsoft recommend AVG as well as Norton Symantec. Why not fix the retail version and make it run in background on Vista like Corporate version and other peoples products.

Symantec Internet Security 2008 works for me on Vista Home Premium with latest updates in addition to an XP machine with SP2 I have here. Identity safe also works with IE7 on Vista and Firefox on Vista. :-)I did notice that sometimes the offline updates from the list will not apply, so in this case you need to use their automatic update mechanism, then wait for the next offline updater.
