Well that I don't need to worry about right off the bat since my New PC will
not be online; at least not for awhile .. I have network issues among a slew
of other things to work out here first LOL Not to mention a 600+ mile drive
to worry about next week as well; I was just curious about my Audio &Video
converting Apps and my Tiger Woods game .. Thanx though for the Heads Up .
LOL

32-bit "works in Vista 64-bit" 64-bit The "works in Vista 64-bit" means the
program installs to the Programs (x86) folder and runs as 32 bit software.
That means it totally ignores the fact you have a 64 bit environment and in
some, maybe all, cases ignores anything and everything in the 64-bit
sectionsof the registry. This is important when using system tools as only a
64-bit tool will do a 64-bit job. I have browsed several system utilities
anda large number that "works in Vista 64-bit" warn that they ignore the
64-bit areas of the system and specifically the 64-bit sections of the
registry. Far too much software out there is "works in Vista 64-bit". I
wouldmake sure that your security suite is capable of detecting and
protecting against 64-bit invasions whether it actually runs in 64-bit mode
or simply "works in Vista 64-bit". 64-bit threats are probably very few and
very far between right now, but if you are in a true 64-bit browser, email
client, download manager, ftp client or similar tool then you want to be
protected "just in case". NOTE: Flash from Adobe does NOT work in 64-bit
browsers. You must use 32-bit IE (comes with Vista x64) or other 32-bit
browser if visiting YouTube or other sites that require Flash. Adobe is very
arrogant about this issue and so far has refused to make a 64-bit version
forany OS including OS X and Linux. Do not expect it to get with the program
anytime soon. Adobe will only say "sometime after version 10". Don Cosmic
