I have the same question 0. Reg: Apr Hi 5arge, I will pass along this information to the product teams for supporting Windows XP bit in future version of Norton product. Zeiram Visitor 2. Reg: Jul I seem to be very confused about x64 support for Norton products. Contains no information about 32bit only or 64bit compatibility or even Vista 64 compatibility. I am sorry for the confusion. Hi Zeiram, I appreciate the confusion in how the operating systems are listed on that page.
Reg: Aug Regards, Mikael. I, too, was baffled by the lack of XP64 support. I have used Norton and McAfee for a number of years. I thought that Norton was at the top of heep and I proudly recommended it to others who were looking for some virus protection.
I was incredibly confused as to how this could be. On the bright side, though, I tried Kaspersky and found it to be better in many ways than Norton. Most importantly, Kaspersky supports XP Thanks for the info. I will try that out for now. It's sad but I need an antivirus program. Reg: Sep The lack of support is essentially Branding suicide.

These are fake emails that can look surprisingly legitimate.
If you get tricked into clicking a link or providing information, thieves can get your passwords and account numbers.
Buying subscription-based antivirus software that specifically targets phishing is one way to help protect against being scammed. Keeping antivirus software up-to-date can help keep a computer protected against ever-evolving threats. Antivirus software can block offending emails that come from a suspect source or contain phrases common to many phishing attempts.

And this number is growing. Additionally, each country has at least two servers, so you won't always connect to the same IP or data center when you turn on the VPN and connect to any specific region.

Both use security improvements that were made available in Service Pack 1. Rob Enderle, principal analyst with the Enderle Group, warned that it could take Symantec and McAfee between 30 and days to make security software available for 64 - bit Windows.
Security vendors usually have more time to release software for a new operating system, Enderle pointed out. Because retailers need time to stock systems that run the new operating system, there is a time gap between when the software is finished and the official launch. But 64 - bit Windows XP systems will not ship preinstalled with new systems, at least for now, so the antivirus software developers had less time to prepare. The lack of protection for x64 Windows is not the only reason why consumers should put off switching.
Hardware vendors have to develop new drivers for the system and there is currently only a limited number of drivers bundled with the software. The same drivers can be used for Longhorn , the next major release of Windows that is scheduled for release late next year. By then most computers will support 64 - bit. Browse Community.
