Anti Virus Software for Windows XP 64-Bit
I am probably posting this in the wrong section and if that's the case feel free to move it.

I have a PC with Windows XP Professional 64 Bit Edition OS and am trying to find a good compatible Anti Virus program. I have always used Symantec in the past but they don't do anything that works with the 64 Bit OS.

Any suggestions are welcome because I'm hoping to use that PC for online gaming in the near future.

Yes it's not really a "games" issue - moving to a more appropriate home.

The commercial version of AVG works on XP 64-bit.

Could you give me a link to where I can purchase the commercial version of this program?

Purchase AVG from here.

As mentioned above, other products are available. The normal attraction of AVG is that it's free!

Another good choice is Kaspersky.
