Fellow CFers,
This thread's goal is to list any piece of software that you, as a Vista user, have installed and tested to work. The aim here is not to list the programs that work which have the "Works with Vista" logo, but to list those who don't but nevertheless work. Division The programs will be divided into 3 groups; those who work with Vista, in green, those who work but with flaws, in orange (please indicate said flaws), and those who absolutely don't work, in red. You may post anything, be it a Game, Work Utility, Driver, Multimedia tool, anything as long as you have tested it on Vista. What to post? You should give the programs name (brand first), version, Vista build, 32 / 64 bit and hardware if it bears a meaning on this list (i.e.: it worked on a computer but not on another, Vista builds being the same and the hardware being the only variable). Examples of this could go as such, where VB means Vista Build : Slysoft CloneDVD, v.3.9.4.0, 32-bit, VB6000, WORKS FLAWLESSLY Comodo Firewall Pro, v.2.4.5.111 BETA, 32-bit, VB6000, VISTA WARNS INCOMPATIBILITY UPON SETUP, WHICH MUST BE RUN IN WINDOWS XP MODE PeerGuardian, v.2.0 Beta 6b, 32-bit, VB6000, INSTALLS AND SEEMS TO WORK BUT DOESN'T BECAUSE DRIVER DOESN'T INSTALL Vista Build 6000 is actually RTM, the final version, which is the one currently sold on the vista equipped computers. Don't need to write VB6000, RTM is shorter and will do fine. Hopefully we will be able to maintain a nice list of programs in which users can search for a specific program.

Well, its a nice idea, one that you might have gotten from the iexbeta article that is designed the exact same way. At any rate, such a goal is too impossible in a forum-reply setting like this one. Better stick to the iexbeta article, which can be edited and added to easily and on one page. It can be found here:
