Summary
AVG Anti Virus

AVG Anti Virus also promises 64-bit support on its home page. At least that is what a single animated GIF suggests. When you check the supported systems, it turns out that this includes only the MS Windows XP Pro x64 Edition operating system, as their support does not cover the MS Windows 2003 Server x64 Edition. No further information can be found about the nature of the support. The software installed on the 64-bit XP without any problems. When the installation process was complete, it launched 32-bit processes. We also had a minor flaw here as well: the System group on the About dialogue identified our 64-bit Windows XP operating system as Windows 2003 (or at least it indicated so), and that left us with that familiar feeling of uncertainty again.
