For those of you who - like me - give the german version of Vista a testdrive I can report that AVK (AntiVirenKit 2005) seems to (install and) work fine. It reports both engines (BitDefender and Kaspersky Anti Virus) to be active and downloads its updates with no apparent problem. Anyway, Vista doesen't recognize the program so you still get the warning that your computer might be at risk.
Question: it seems save just to ignore that message. What do you think and should I file a report to Microsoft also?

Question: it seems /save/ just to ignore that message. What do you
Sorry, that should have read "safe", of course... I was thinking about the "save file-problem" for files I tried to download (that somehow solved itself it seems).
think and should I file a report to Microsoft also?

Thanks. Is it kinda required (for safety reasons) to have the AV-software being recognized by Vista?
