    Just tried a new program from IObit, no issues running alongside with Nod32 SS.
    Took almost 10 min to scan my x64 partition, but seems pretty light on resources.

    IObit Security 360 3.1 Beta

    Im glad to hear that, i was just about to ask whether somebody has tried it.

    (Best damn software firewall there is and yet its free. Couldnt imagine ever using something else anymore.)

    So was that on 32 or on 64? Would be good to know if 64 is O.K. as well because IF i decide to switch to 7 i would probably say goodbye to 32 as well while im at it...

    So far everything has worked for me, with 2 exceptions.

    TuneUp Utilities 2009 - does not even install, gives a message that this OS is not supported.

    Starcraft - installs and runs fine, however, it does not stretch to fit the screen. Stays in a 4:3 aspect ratio and the colors are screwed up. The colors were messed up in vista as well, but it wasn't an issue because it would correct itself after some time. However, the aspect ratio issue is a bust. Also my maphack does not work for it anymore. For now, I have to run it in XP with virtualbox. Anyone know a fix for this?

    EDIT: I heard people had problems with Kaspersky Anti Virus 2010, but I have had zero issues.

    fixed starcraft issue - needed to set flat panel scaling in nvidia control panel to "use nvidia scaling". For some reason, it reverts back to "use my displays built in setting", but starcraft runs in 16:10 now.
