Thanks for all the info. This is what i read on Mcrosoft and installed... [Haven't installed Windows Vista? yet? Don't fret! You can still get the protection of Trend Micro's 90-Day Free Trial Version of PC-cillin Internet Security 2006 today: http://go.microsoft.com/?LinkID=910006 ] But it did not work. I already bought In January and installed the cdrom "PC-cillin - Internet Security 2006" and uninstalled it when Microsoft asked me to use Windows Live OneCare. I guess it blocks other anti - virus' installations. oh well.
