Well sorry to say but assumption is the worst thing you can do. Check the website for compatibility. Dont worry i already have. It is Vista compatible.

It appears avg has changed the software since i last downloaded it. Automatic updates and protection are no longer an option for their free anti spyware program. It is however compatible with vistsa and vista 64.

or maybe go with another form of Anti spyware?

Maybe just use windows defender, even though its kinda junk ;/

I would use windows defender it t wasn't the same as leaving my computer wide open to attack. I have not decided what i am going to do about my spyware protection yet. I used to use manual protection maybe I'll just stick to that.
