Which A/V (if any) works in Beta2 (5384.4) 64-bit? I have tried:
CA eTrust EZ TrendMicro PC-cillin AVG Avast 4.7 NOD32
and at best the real time scanner does not work, at worst they fubar the OS. Avast and NOD32 are advertised as working in 64-bit XP so my hopes were high for them but no joy. Thank you.

Uh, AVs also work in kernel mode, which means, they either need to be 32-bit or 64-bit native depending which platform you are using 32-bit or 64-bit, so a list of x86 AVs are useless to the OP Zack. -- -- Andre Windows Connected | http://www.windowsconnected.com Extended64 | http://www.extended64.com Blog | http://www.extended64.com/blogs/andre http://spaces.msn.com/members/adacosta

Indeed, you are Correct that Avast does NOT work on X64 Beta 2 (on both Client and Server), just FYI.

Symantecs 10.0.622 release did work on x64 up until 5381, however in beta 2 there is a hard block. They are coming out with a new release soon that should work.

I am with AOL in the UK. 2meg line on using thompson wireless router, pc connected via ethernet. Avast stops my pc getting to the internet with anything. I had tried EZ first but no realtime protection.

NOD32 actually doesn't work under Vista (both x86 and x64 versions). It seems like it's working, but in fact, it doesn't, because it induces a 100% CPU utilization all the time. That's not really what I would call a well-functioning A/V under Vista.
