I've installed Vista Beta 2 and as it isn't compatible with Zone Alarm, have
installed the free EZ-Antivirus as recommended by Microsoft.

Real time scanning is however disabled and won't come on no matter how much
I try.

Has anyone else had a similar problem and how can it be resolved?

Any ideas?
 
I had the same problem as well. I used the other one recommended by Microsoft
for Vista Beta 2 - Trend Microcillin. Seems to be working fine.

Yes...Zonealarm does not work as well. I also tried this too.

Why follow Microsoft's advice when it comes to antivirus products?
They've never been known as "AV-Friendly" before. Why should they
suddenly change now?

Use a decent product, like NOD32 (in my and many others' estimation
probably the best of its kind). I believe that it is either
Vista-compatible now, or will be soon. Of course, you will have to
pay a few dollars for it. Basic protection just does not come "free"
nowadays.

TrendMicro is a good AV product, however. Just make sure to keep it
updated daily (even hourly).

The Vista firewall supposedly protects both ways, so it should be a
decent firewall (or will be eventually).

I use CA eTrust and it works fine. It looks like a decent product and it's
free for 1 year.
