VIPRE from Sunbelt Software

UPDATED, yet again:

While I was at Tech Ed I was eating breakfast with a salesman from Sunbelt. Yea I know what you are thinking another salesman, but this guy wasn’t pushy, actually I did not even get his name, but long story short he told me about their product, VIPRE. There are a couple of cool things about there product. 1) it is supposed to be very fast, that is good in an antivirus. 2) it works on Server OS’s (like win 2k3 and win 2k8), and 3) they have an unlimited site license for home users. Since I run many Virtual Servers in my house this was the perfect option for me (i.e. $50 to get antivirus for all my computers).

Only time will tell if it will work as advertised, I will be sure to report back if I have any problems. . . . 

One downside is that they don't say if you can use VIPRE on Win 7. . . . (I am emailing their sales department to find out.)

I spoke to the team at VIPRE and they said that they are working on Win 7 compatibility and they should be ready when Win 7 goes to RTM.

I am currently using the software, without issue on a few copys of Win 7 Ultimate!

BTW this doesn’t replace how much I like OneCare (http://onecare.live.com) for the typical home user, however that doesn't work on Server OS-es and only supports up to 3 computers.
