<IMHO>
Temporarily disable all real-time protections afforded by your anti-virus
application, any anti-spyware applications, and any third-party firewall
prior to installing Vista SP1. If you disable a third-party firewall, make
sure you then enable the Windows Firewall: The machine should not be
connected to the internet without an active firewall.

NB ZA Free users: Uninstall ZA Free via Add/Remove Programs and enable the
Windows Firewall before installing SP1.

After installing SP1 /and rebooting twice/, check to make sure your
real-time protections have been re-enabled; If you disabled a third-party
firewall, remember to re-enable it and disable the Windows Firewall.

Unlimited installation and compatibility support for Vista SP1 is available
