Appreciate pithon, I noticed kaspersy open space business security is great except that when scanning and updating the workastations are performance hit. Or should I consider a kaspersky server(I.e administration kit)

The open space security comes with an admin kit. in the kaspersky tech terms it is called a media kit. You can manage the entire network in one location On Fri, Jan 21, 2011 at 4:07 PM, kimondo Duncan <kimondodk@gmail.com> wrote:

Rocky, There was a rumour that the only major virus Eset managed to contain was the one they had designed when launching it. The last time I tried it in a high risk area it failed miserably(In a printer comp. in college NB. It was cracked). What is the probability that these online review are skewed. http://anti-virus-software-review.toptenreviews.com/ http://www.toptenservices.net/2009/10/19/top-ten-enterprise-antivirus/

I also love Nod 32 (Eset Anti-virus 4). - Easy to install and administer on individual PCs - Scans everything including incoming and outgoing mail on your email client - Flexible configuration of its operation - Several updates; upto 4 per day which are very light but effective On Tue, Jan 25, 2011 at 9:14 AM, kimondo Duncan <kimondodk@gmail.com> wrote:

How many users? The strength of a corporate a/v is determined mainly by the way you can configure and manage it from a central location. If you are looking at over 50 desktops and don't have a good management portal, it's a pain in the backside. Reporting capabilities is also key.
