    All commercial versions of AVG are compatible with the 64-bit edition of Windows. AVG Free is not compatible with Windows 64 bit. AVG Anti-Virus Professional and Anti-Malware editions also run on Windows Vista. At time of writing the Firewall component and standalone Anti-Spyware are not Vista compatible. This is expected to be fixed soon.

    Few security developers that deliver support for 64-bit Windows Vista. I am not saying that these are all, but they are the ones I managed to find. If you have anything to add, your input will be welcomed. Avast!, Grisoft AVG, McAfee, NOD32 and Symantec are all delivering support for 64-bit Windows Vista.
