I'm using Win OvPro version 2.92 (22nd June 2007) on a Vista run Laptop
without any particular problems.
Windows updates including "Defender" are completely up to date as of this
past weeks supply.
One point I would make about installing almost anything on a Vista based
machine, because of the cretinous security measures incorported by MS.
At install. Always click RH mouse button over the .exe installer and
select "Run as Administrator" it seems to save aggravation at a later time.
Cheers
