AVG Works
I installed AVG on my Windows 7. Works without problems.
kasperkey doesnt
Kaspersky antivirus has update issue and will not update for a long period and still there is no fix to it.
Kaspersky Update In Windows 7
Kaspersky For Windows 7 is a BETA product which uses Kaspersky's BETA servers for updating definitions, these BETA servers are not as often updated as the real ones.
Kaspersky did not update
Kaspersky did not update in Windows 7 for me. It said the database was up to date at the same time it said it needed updating. Downloading the .zip from Kaspersky didn't help either. After twenty minutes of fooling around with it, I removed and have installed Nod32 instead.
Thanks
Norton 360 is working fine on my Windows 7 Beta Build 7000 installation.
Kaspersky
You know the regular kaspersky internet security 8 works fine on windows 7, and fully updates without any issues at all. Not sure why they have a seperate version.
Also find it fast and easy to use.. One of the few AV apps that you can very easily and completely exit out of so it uses no system resources. Most you can just partially disable but they still waste resources.
Malwarebytes not working on RC 7100
it didn't work for me anyway
