[Technical] OT - Anti-Virus Software for Network - a Query

[Allan Barnes]

Hi Keith

I have tried quite a few antivirus software packages and have found Norton
to be the best, in my opinion. It does have some issues with trying to block
traffic across a network, but once that is sorted out, I find that it blocks
a lot of spyware programs and filters out a majority of viruses.

I use it on about 15 or so computers here.



Kind regards

Hi everyone.

We are seeking your advice and/or thoughts about 'good' anti-virus software
that we will be able to use for our 100 or so computers.
We have been using VET happily for some years, but they are making forced
changes we are not happy about so we are looking elsewhere.

Our Technician is very interested in:

Symantec anti virus.
 
We have windows 98 2000 & XP workstations.
 
Our network rund on Novel Servers
 
We are looking at changing our Anti-Virus solution to Symantec Antivirus
Corp Edition 10.0 with Symantec Mail Security 4.1 for SMTP.
 
Has anyone tried these products and how did they find them?

In anticipation, many thanks!
Keith
