    ...that may explain it. I refuse to get sucked into this "install every leaked build" mania.

    We must be missing something in 7100 build that's been included in the builds above it.

    I have a paid premium account for all three of my machines, so when I found that SAS wouldn't work with Win7, I emailed support. I was told that when Win7 was finalized and ready for public sale, then it would release an updated, compatible program.

    That's understandable.

    SuperAntiSpyware free edition v4.24.1004 installed and runs perfectly on my win 7 x64 installation. It updates and runs a scan correctly.

    It looks like it will be a hit and miss until they release a version that officially supports Windows 7 then.

    Looks like they are preparing thier product for the final win 7 release, until then it may not work on RCs and betas. I tried it on my 7100 build... BSOD!

    Tested it on build 7232 x64. Ran in Vista SP2 compatibility mode an as administrator, no BSOD's. Although, it doesn't start when Windows starts like it should. With the default settings of start when Windows starts and the entry being in the Startup lists. Other than that, I see no other problems.

    You don't really even need it to start up when Windows does if you have the free version anyways. You don't have Real Time Protection so there's no point to have it automatically start up really.The free is just a manual scanner.

    Hi Aaron, did you install it in compatibility mode?

    No, just normal install. I unblocked the download before I installed it though, as I do with anything I install.

    I don't receive any BSOD. I upgraded straight from Vista to 7 with SAS already installed.
