Symantec Antivirus for Windows

 

Note added August 25, 2008: We have received and put the SEP 11 installer for 64-bit machines up on E-Sales. Symantec was very prompt at getting one to us.

Note if you are using SAV with Windows XP: In a few cases, people have had their Registry trashed if they installed Windows XP SP3 while SAV is running. Be sure to turn SAV off temporarily while updating your XP. It might be a good idea to go to Windows Update and install Windows SP3 yourself, rather than waiting until it's installed automatically. I do not know whether upgrading to SEP fixes the problem. The documentation about the problem is vague; it says that you should turn antivirus programs off while installing XP3, not specifying which ones.
