But it does install on 64-bit Vista and 64-bit Win7 and 64-bit Server 2008 and 64-bit Server 2008 R2.
Believe me, I understand where you are coming from, but in my mind, it's like saying that Exchange 2010 should install on Windows 2000. (And also believe me - I've already heard one complaint about the fact that it won't.) ________________________________ From: Micheal Espinola Jr [[email protected]] Sent: Wednesday, September 30, 2009 1:16 PM To: NT System Admin Issues Subject: Re: MSE is released... Getting the product installed on all my test systems took hours and hours, but the fault was mine, not Microsoft's: I've been doing back-to-back suite reviews for months, and I let my test systems get behind on their Windows updates, so I had to bring them all up to speed before installing Security Essentials. I really wonder what the purpose of this statement is. If it was a forced patching prior to the install, kudos to Microsoft, and Mr. Rubenking should have giving them recognition for that. If not, why bother to convolute his install notes with his own inadequacies that muddle the actual installation time? What truly disappoints me is that this is yet another application that wont install on 64-bit XP. -- ME2 On Wed, Sep 30, 2009 at 6:32 AM, Alex Eckelberry <[email protected]<mailto:[email protected]>> wrote: PC Mag review fwiw http://www.pcmag.com/article2/0,2817,2353447,00.asp -----Original Message----- From: Angus Scott-Fleming [mailto:[email protected]<mailto:[email protected]>] Sent: Wednesday, September 30, 2009 2:13 AM To: NT System Admin Issues Subject: Re: MSE is released...

I disable inbound mail filtering as I figure the real-time scanner will catch anything malicious as it's extracted from the email and written to disk. It's the same engine and signatures, so it isn't going to catch anything different. Inbound filters (especially Norton/Symantec AV) have caused some of my clients some serious support nightmares when they can't get email and I have to figure out why. I use Pegasus Mail which has two different HTML display modes (neither depends on IE), doesn't support scripting and doesn't download external images until I tell it to, so I'm safe from the normal Outlook and Outlook Express/IE problems there. My POPfile spamfilter and Pegasus Mail's built-in SpamHalter (another trainable bayesian filter) filter most crap into the spam folder, which gets purged once it hits whatever age I've set (I think I've set 10 days), so I have 10 days to review the "Probably Spam" folder if someone complains that I haven't responded to an email. -- Angus Scott-Fleming GeoApps, Tucson, Arizona 1-520-290-5038 +-----------------------------------+ ~ Finally, powerful endpoint security that ISN'T a resource hog! ~ ~ <http://www.sunbeltsoftware.com/Business/VIPRE-Enterprise/> ~ ~ Finally, powerful endpoint security that ISN'T a resource hog! ~ ~ <http://www.sunbeltsoftware.com/Business/VIPRE-Enterprise/> ~ ~ Finally, powerful endpoint security that ISN'T a resource hog! ~ ~ <http://www.sunbeltsoftware.com/Business/VIPRE-Enterprise/> ~
