RE: [IMail Forum] Declude virus, Mcafee or F-prot?

My understanding of the situation is that you have to look REALLY hard for Netshield and that McAfee doesn't want to sell you just one copy.   We are using the Active Virus Defense Suite here, which includes Netshield for servers, VirusScan 4.5 for desktops, Webshield SMTP (which I was running but it locked up my mail server and let tons of viruses through) and something called Epolicy Orchestrator which is centralized management software for all the other McAfee products that come in the Defense Suite. The whole package is a bit pricey for those on a tight budget, however, our virus infections companywide have been almost eliminated,  both on desktops and servers,with the combination of McAfee's package and the Declude software (which is very reasonably priced!).   Sharyn -----Original Message----- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] On Behalf Of Jim Jones, Jr. Sent: Tuesday, August 28, 2001 12:45 PM To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: Re: [IMail Forum] Declude virus, Mcafee or F-prot? If I were to go to McAfee's website and purchase something online to run with Declude, what product would I order...   Thanks,   Jim ----- Original Message ----- From: Sharyn Schmidt To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Tuesday, August 28, 2001 11:26 AM Subject: RE: [IMail Forum] Declude virus, Mcafee or F-prot?

I purchased F-Prot for Windows and wish I got McAfee or Norton! The F-Prot does not run as a service so I have to keep the server conole logged on all the time so that F-Prot will get it's updates. Speaking of updates! There updater program seems to FAIL A LOT! It is not very forgiving when it comes to the Internet being busy or even there server being busy so we don't get updated everytime it tries to update. I have found a lot of viruses that have been released this year are not even detected by F-Prot! Ouch! :-( Hope this has helped you in making a choice about what brand to use. > --- Original Message --- > From: "Pasquale" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> > To: "IMail_Forum" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> > Date: Tue, 28 Aug 2001 17:17:42 +0200 > Subject: [IMail Forum] Declude virus, Mcafee or F-prot? > > I would like to install declude virus with mcafee or f-prot on my servers, > that are NT and Win2000.
