RE: [ActiveDir] OT: Protecting against Spyware/Adware

I have not done a lot of research on this, but if you have users in either the power users or regular users group, won’t that cut down tremendously on the potential of getting adware/spyware?   From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Chinnery, Paul Sent: Thursday, September 14, 2006 11:04 AM To: ActiveDir@mail.activedir.org Subject: RE: [ActiveDir] OT: Protecting against Spyware/Adware   We're using CounterSpy Enterprise from Sunbelt Software.  Like you, we have seen aperformance hit* on computers with just 128 meg of memory but that goes away when we add more memory.  The only issue I ran into, other than performance, was it blocked a cookie that was necessary for our payroll department.  However, once I "okayed" that cookie, it was fine.    *According to Sunbelt, the next version is supposed to reduce the performance impact. -----Original Message----- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]On Behalf Of Chris Pohlschneider Sent: Thursday, September 14, 2006 10:44 AM To: ActiveDir@mail.activedir.org Subject: [ActiveDir] OT: Protecting against Spyware/Adware Just curious what other people are using for protecting against adware/spyware? We are using Webroot Spysweeper right now, but I see some performance hits on computers running this software and it does work, but it causes headaches will installing some apps that we approve. Any suggestions are appreciated.   Chris Pohlschneider Holloway Sportswear IT 937-494-2559 937-497-7300 (Fax) [EMAIL PROTECTED]
