Vista Service Pack 2 = 843 Patches
Posted on May 28th, 2009 at 04:31 3 commentsMicrosoft just posted a list of all the patches and hotfixes that have been rolled into Vista Service Pack 2. All 843 of them.
So far, the newsgroups have quite a few messages about installation failures. Some people have found that SP2 doesn’t play well with NOD32 v 4. And so on.
We waited many months for Vista SP2. You can afford to wait another week or so, to see what shakes out. Patience, grasshopper.

Bummer that NOD32 version 4.x doesn’t support Vista SP2.
check this blog:
http://msmvps.com/blogs/donna/archive/2009/05/28/eset-to-vista-sp2-end-users-downgrade-to-v3.aspxESET suggests downgrading from version 4 to version 3. fortunately, I’m already using NOD32 v3.0.684 on a Vista SP2 based Dell laptop and didn’t have to upgrade to v4.

I respect anyone’s choice of their personal favorite security programs, but please reconsider ESET. Their antimalware has not fared well in independent lab testing. That’s a fact, not an opinion.
Given that there are perfectly good free alternatives, I see no reason to stick with security software which conflicts with an imprtant Windows Service Pack.
Just my opinion. Take it or leave it.

A “test” patch is now available for Vista SP2 users who have NOD32 v4.0x installed. Read this ESET KB article for more information.
