I don't think this is a full time job. If you have a full time position just for A/V, you'd have to have a backup person since viruses do not take any vacation. Instead of having full time position, pay A/V vendor to notify you (& other support staffs) when there's new virus via pager, cell phone, email, etc. If you want to have closer relationship with A/V vendor, pay more money to have someone like Technical Account Manager, TAM. Once you have those communcation method established, you have to have software that can distribute updates automatically and fast.

Just curious what some of the Exchange Admins think. Would you consider Antivirus a full time job? I speak for both email and network/desktop. Around here it isn't, although we wish it was cause it seems to be getting neglected. We are around 1300 users right now. e- _________________________________________________________________ List posting FAQ: http://www.swinc.com/resource/exch_faq.htm Archives: http://www.swynk.com/sitesearch/search.asp To unsubscribe: mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Exchange List admin: [EMAIL PROTECTED] _________________________________________________________________ List posting FAQ: http://www.swinc.com/resource/exch_faq.htm Archives: http://www.swynk.com/sitesearch/search.asp To unsubscribe: mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Exchange List admin: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
