Useless under win 7. so back to AVG. uses like 200mb of mem (ram = over 100meg + a huge amount of virtual mem) hangs the system when i connect to the Internet.
When the win7 version comes out i'll try it again.
THANK GOD

I couldnt get it from Microsoft's website as i said b4 but i found it on my trusty site filehippo.com and they had 3 versions, one for xp and 2 for vista, 32 bit + 64 bit. I used the vista 32 bit and installed in in vista sp2 compatibility mode.
THANK GOD
How come? http://www.microsoft.com/Security_Essentials/
Anyways, the same file for Vista is the same file they have available for Windows 7.
Here are the links to the Vista/Windows 7 version from MS site.
32-bit

64-bit

See if they work for you. I'll remove the links when you have tried (or not try).

I still cant access the site from the first link (I'll try another ISP later) but that is the exact file I had used.
The app starts up at over 200MB and eventually throttles to ~50MB. thats not an issue for me but freezing up the pc is unacceptable.
THANK GOD
Been using it on my netbook for a few months now cuz it uses minimal resources and I think i'll be switching my desktop to it shortly
