Version: CA Anti-Virus Plus Anti-Spyware 2009
"CA Anti-Virus Plus Anti-Spyware 2008 version"
Pros: Scans fast.
Cons: Creates no desktop icon or shortcut and no icon appears in the system tray which made we wonder if the program was even installed at first. You have to click start, then programs to start it.
Summary:
Update, it created an icon in the system tray later. Program seems to work fine.

Version: CA Anti-Virus Plus Anti-Spyware 2009
Pros: Worked sometimes.
Cons: Too many to list, crashes Vista with HIPS error's! Slows the system considerably.
Summary: Tech support? HA! Virus protection? HA! what with HIPS bringing everything down. I am running 64 bit Vista and downloaded CA's 64 bit application that I would classify as BETA. 64 bit users, you have been warned.
