2008 Trend Micro Internet Security is NOT is compatible with Windows
Vista SP1 and Windows XP SP3
I have deleted all of the old 2007 and new 2008 Trend Micro Internet
Security virus software from my computer, because of the multiple
alert messages, that I was having with their new 2008 upgraded
software.
If the Trend Micro Personal Firewall and the Unauthorized Changes
Prevention features main components do not work with the new service
packs from Microsoft, why are they still selling this non-working
software to the public?
Also, I don't want to wait until sometime in February 2008, for them
to released a "working" version of their Trend Micro Internet
Security, that is compatible with Windows Vista SP1 and Windows XP
SP3. I don't want to remove any new Microsoft service packs, or
uninstall the 2008 Trend Micro program installed in my computer and
re-
install the PC-cillin Internet Security 2007 back into my computer,
and wait again.... until the release of their new 2008 working
version.
I was receiving these error messages: Trend Micro Internet Security
Message: Your Unauthorized Change Prevention Service has shut down.
Try restarting Trend Micro Internet Security to restore Your
Unauthorized Change Prevention Service. If the problem persists,
please restart your computer. If you continue to receive this warning,
please contact Technical Support.
I keep getting this "Alert" message: "Alert Message: Trend Micro
Internet Security. Unable to recognize the software configuration.
Restart your computer to restore the missing information. If the
problem persists, please contact technical support."
I have been working on their error alert messages and replies, since
12/24/07. After eight or more emails back and forth....and multiple
number of lines of their instructions, that's it!! I do not want to
screw up my computer, I do not want more messages, screen shots,
replies, deletes, uninstalls and then reinstalling any more files...in
my computer, hard drive or registry.
I asked Trend Micro, that I want a refund ($40.45) for this
subscription.
They replied:
I am sorry to inform you, but we can no longer refund the Trend Micro
program that you have purchased from us. Refund application should be
requested within 30 days from the date of purchase. Refunds after 30
days are given in a case to case basis. This is after the all attempts

Please provide us with the following so that we can forward this to

Asked/Answered in microsoft.public.security newsgroup:
<QP>
If neither Vista SP1 nor WinXP SP3 have been RTM, how can Trend Micro assess
compatibility?
Vista SP1 is expected to be released by the end of Mar-08. WinXP SP3 is
expected to be released sometime during 2Q08.

First, you need to get a clue on how to properly post to multiple
newsgroups.
Second, your saying an application isn't compatible with a service pack
release that isn't even finalized yet, this surprises you? Do companies now
need to make their products compatible with beta and RC releases?

FYI, neither SP1 for Vista or SP3 for Windows XP have been released in final code.
Both Service Packs are still under development and are "beta" code.

Directly from your post above: "A working version of Trend
Micro Internet Security Pro, Trend Micro Internet Security
and Trend Micro AntiVirus plus AntiSpyware 2008 with Windows
Vista SP1 and Windows XP SP3 would be released sometime in
February 2008.

Windows."
If you had not installed beta software on a working system
you wouldn't have any issues on a production machine. If you
installed it on a test machine, you have to expect issues
such as these. As other posters have stated the final
release of SP3 & SP1 haven't been released but you expect
Trend Micro to release a patch. They would just be spinning
their wheels and costing more money for the company to patch
now and then have to go back and send another patch once the
final SPs are done.
Trend did give various workarounds to fix your issue but you
don't feel that you should comply with those fixes.

You tried to install a full production product on a beta OS and you are
disappointed/confused/etc about the vendor of the fully released product not
yet supporting intstallation/use on an unreleased product?
Then you don't want to remove the beta installs of the service packs that
are causing the problems (although you will have to remove them - or that
has been the past recommendation - before installing the full releases) and
you expect what reaction from the rest of the people who would think you are
just being stubborn?
There are no words...

Also have problem with Trend Micro Pro 2008, installed on windows Vista. The
scenario is exactly the same as "larryinaz". After about 5 emails to tech
support, I received an identical reply to the one they sent to him.
Funny thing: I never did install vista's SP1 Beta. Sounds to me like this
has nothing to do with Microsoft. Must be a problem that Trend Micro needs to
fix??
Sent Trend Micro an email, explaining the situation-am waiting for a reply...
