I'm using AVG 7.5 on my laptop, as it's 32bit.  It doesn't work on my desktop, 64bit Vista.  I haven't checked to see if they have an update for 64bit Vista yet, I need to do that.  But I really like AVG, it's alwaus worked really well for me.  If they don't have an update for 64bit Vista I'll probably give Avast a shot.

I use NOD32. They say that their latest version also works on 64 bits versions. That's true, but it does it in 32 bit... shame.

I use Norton Security Suite 2007 with Vista 32 bit.  I couple it with PC Tools' Spyware Doctor and I feel that with a hardware firewall in my router I have a robust amount of protection.  Only time will really tell.  Their spyware protection is less robust than other products according to Niel Rubiking, hence the addition of Spyware Doctor.

I have 2GB memory and an AMD 4800+ CPU on an Abit A8N32X motherboard.  No performance problems at all and it seems to work quite well.  What is MOST astounding is that it does everything quietly in the background without the annoying questions of older generation security suites from Norton and its competitors. 

My only complaint is that there is not enough granularity in controlling some of its options.  For example there are times when I want to turn off the firewall and/or antivirus for a specific install or purpose.  There is no easy way to do that from the system tray. 

Otherwise, I have been recommending this product to my clients, which is a new thing for me.  I have never been willing to inflict Norton on them because of rotten support, excessive resource use, and unreliable antivirus protection.  They have gotten their act together and the rapidity of their response to email technical support will blow your mind.  The first one is automated and not likely to hit your problem on the nail, but the second one has gotten my few requests right on the money.

Hope this helps.
