Yeah I haven't seen a virus in a couple years at least. If you know what your doing on the Internet, it's 90% of the battle.

That's like saying, "I don't know what the problem is - works on my box". 99% of A/V installations work fine, but for the 1% that do not, the big three are the worst - NOD32, McAfee, and Symantec. Just because you have no problems doesn't mean others won't. I'm not saying NOD32 will work with all installations flawlessly but your original post is implying to me that NOD32 is bloated (a system resource hog) along the lines of the Norton suite and McAfee. If that's what you mean I beg to differ because I have tried all those products and it's certainly the lightest.

I hate to say it as I'm new here but that is a load of BS. I've been running NOD32 for a while now on my 64 bit installation with no slowdown whatsoever. In fact, I wouldn't even know it's running minus the icon in my system tray. If any of you check out planetamd64 I'm sure you'll find similar opinions.

StyleXP supposedly works with it. It may be beta though I'm not sure.

I've been using the 64 bit XP for months now and no gripes whatsoever. If all your hardware is supported and you are prepared it should be a great experience. The ones who run into trouble usually didn't do their research.
