    Is there any way to make Cisco VPN Client run on 64-bit?

    Nope, Cisco insists that you upgrade firmware on your device and run the AnyConnect VPN Client. They have no plans to write a client for 64 bit vista either. A popular work-around is downloading Virtual PC from MS (for free) and running an XP machine through there. Good luck.

    I see Virtual PC does not support Vista Home Premium. Can I install and run this program successfully without causing any conflicts? Is it compatible with Home Premium?

    I don't know for sure, but Microsoft's site says this:
    Source: http://www.microsoft.com/windows/products/winfamily/virtualpc/overview.mspx

    However, keep in mind that Home Premium is missing many networking features of Business, Enterprise, and Ultimate. For instance, you cannot connect to a domain with Home Premium.
