After only a couple of days using the 2.0 Beta of Windows Live OneCare on 64 bit Vista, I can definitely recommend *NOT* installing it. OneCare hangs during a virus scan of my PC, getting stuck on an Outlook PST file contained in a gzipped tar file. Also, SlimServer has stopped working. To make matters worse, I can't remove OneCare as the uninstaller is hanging.

I upgraded my desktop machine to Windows Vista x64 some time ago and purchased Windows Live OneCare, only to find out during the installation process that it only supported 32 bit editions of Windows XP and Vista. I've just received a mailshot announcing a new 2.0 beta, which now apparently supports 64 bit platforms.
