I cant speak from experience on all of them. However, the only one I would really question would be mcafee. I only wonder about that one because I know both nortons 2000 and 2001 have serious issues with winXP. I know for sure ps7 works fine. Plus, if anything does have issues; you can always run it in a compatability layer. In fact, there is a typing program I use that will only work for win95. it will not even work with win98se! I can put it in a compatability layer of win95 and it works perfect in winXP.

Amro, I don't use XP to test this, but wasn't the latest upgrade for BI, a compatible thing for XP?

2.5cp

Dunno, I thought I'd ask. Maybe someone else knows.
