No. unfortunately I don’t and I don’t even believe that such a site/test exists. It would be almost impossible to give correct a comparison when it comes to corporate AV (what the thread starter asked about) since every environment differ from the other. So, back to my original post "Can’t...

Home user products are the only ones tested. I'll guess that it you base your choice solely on virus discovery you´ll be fine. But I would like to count in management, updating, reporting and such in the equation. If one AV software have 2% more detection than the other does not really matter...

Cant really see how this information would translate into the workspace....

Hi All I'm trying to upgrade DFW 8.0 to DFW 8.5 through ePO 3.5 with patch 2. Everything works fine but when a reboot is needed on the client a blank box appears with no text and the user only has the buttons "Yes and No" to click on. This make a deployment impossible if the user dont really...

VS 7 Enterprise are not for Win 9.x or Win ME Cheers AVDude

Hi Try: http://www.mcafeeb2b.com/naicommon/download/dats/superdat.asp Cheers AVDude

Hi Don't you use incremental updates? If you want to check the DAT's before deployment to the rest of you environment... Have your test machines update from a master share where the DAT's where pulled down from NAI. When you see that everything is ok, start your robo copier. The robot...

Hi The emergency disk only contains a smaller DAT needed to scan Boot Sector and memory. McAfee will release a new tool called CleanBoot http://www.mcafeeb2b.com/beta/CleanBoot/default.asp With this utility you can create a bootable CD with the lates DAT and engine since no diskette can hold...

Hi Why would it be a pain to update them? Once you have created the update task, it's done. Do you refer to the internal update sites? I have one server in each group that downloads from NAI. The rest of the nodes updates from that server. One time job... Cheers AVDude

Hi I would suggest using McAfee Installtion Designer if you need the same config on several machines. ePO is another option. Cheers AVDude

Hi No. Slammer only exists in memory. Use the Stinger tool to detect it. If you have it isolate the machine and patch it. This only affects machines that are running SQL 2000 and MSDE 2000 without SP3. Cheers AVDude

Hi Just ignore it. Or... report the incident to AOL. abuse@aol.com Up to you. The FW protected you, so your safe. Be happy, Don't worry. Cheers AVDude

Hi Depends on your version. This is for VirusScan 4.5 & 4.5.1 Start the Windows registry editor. Locate this registry key: HKLM SOFTWARE Network Associates TVD Shared Components On Access Scanner Vshield System Scan General Set the value for the dword variable bSkipSplash, which you'll...

Hi Probably some tweaking in the registry. I'm running ePO myself so I have never gone that way. Cheers AVDude

Hi You might want to think about that they could alert on a real virus. Run on demand scan and take a look in the logs to make sure that your clients are virus free. That should be of more concern than any network messages. Bare in mind that heuristics gives you that extra protective layer...
