Windows Vista and IE 7 arrive with security updates already touted in the press. One of these benefits is a centralized management console which points out on new installation that no antivirus software is installed. There was a button that provided a list of available products to download and install.
For Release Candidate 1 (RC1), only PCcillin from Trend Micro showed up on the list. Now the list has lengthened. CA (Computer Associates) shows up. Trend Micro is still there. Microsoft has an entry into the race. And there are three or four other options.
I installed the Trend Micro product. The installation went well. Virus updates seem to be coming down. All is good.
