Sorry guys, but you both seem

Sorry guys, but you both seem to live on a different planet than SeanKuhl and I do.

In the Compatibility Guide:
ftp://exftpp.symantec.com/pub/support/products/Exc...

it states that:

Windows Server 2008
x64 edition (using WOW64)

R2 (!!!!!)  is still PENDING CERTIFICATION.

You should read more carefully.

Cheers

R2

Bear in mind, the IIS in Windows 2008 R2 is actually IIS 7.5 where R1 is 7.0  so pretty much anything hooked into IIS like EV or Exchange will have to go through retesting and possibly recoding.

What I find facinating though is that they at least listed R2, but nothing about Windows 7 clients or Exchange 2010.
