I agree the product is not ready to ship i have installed it on main pc and everything is ok apart from 2 explorer freezes when it decided to work in back ground,However i installed on my laptop which is core2duo 2 gig ram intel chipset and it has frozen explorer on countless occasions (Windows Explorer)Both pcs are runnig vista sp1 but i actually reformated the laptop because i only use it for media some surfing etc not really any programs installed and after reformat it seemed ok then i ran live update and boom getting explorer crashes once again mostly if i touch anything during boot up after desktop shows,,only takes 30-40 seconds to boot and load everything but if i touch start button or quick launch before about 5 minutes i get little blue circle(old hourglass)and it never ends.
I uninstal NIS 2009 and everything flys,will put 2008 back on tomorow and hope next time the product is ready before we get asked to uipdate.
