Does anyone know (having tried it out) whether CVF will run under Vista,

According to CNET Vista is just a warmed over XP, so CVF should work
just fine, except for an unknown number of service packs until MS cleans
up the bugs.

That's probably simplistic. They've certainly made a number of changes,
many operationally significant such as security/access and "encouraged"
file configuration requirements.

Quite so. Hence my question (I was hoping for practice not theory).
