i'm looking for some suggestions on the best anti-virus to protect nt 4.0 thanks Mark

After reading many reports and evaluating the leading AV products in the early days of DOS, I went with Dr Solomons. It had the best combination of all the things you would want from this type of product :- Speed, lack of false notification, small overhead, good configuration options, very quick to get updates out for new viruses, easy / unobtrusive to intall to desktops, no problems, great support..etc. I've stuck with it through a few incantations and a company buy out. The NT one is now called InoculateIT by Computer Associates. I think it was around £280 for any number of users on the server you install it on. I'm sure other people will have their own ideas and stories, but I've never had a single problem of any type with the above.

Mark, I do lot's of large scale rollouts of various products, and some kind of virus checker is always done...I find McAfee almost exclusively on all NT installations I've worked on...Easy to install, easy to update the DAT files...HOWEVER...this last gig I'm doing the customer specified InnoculatIT as Noel suggests above... This afternoon, I was installing InnoculatIT on a laptop, after removing McAfee with latest DAT and InnoculatIT found 2221 infected files with LoveYou.B.Worm virus...McAfee didn't see it...and this was on Lotus Notes 5.0 using Domino server, which I understand the Love Bug viruses are not supposed to be able to infect, only Exchange & Outlook 9x...I was VERY impressed...Go to Computer Associates Web for more info...Good Luck STeve

This one protect NT and win 9X Takes now over 62,000 virus and it's free for personal use. Free for ever. http://www.free-av.com./ Best regards Jarle.

The company I work for has been using TVD (from Network Associates) for the last year and it's had a number of difficulties; from removing system dll's to raming CPU utilisation up to 99%. We have 1500 nodes on the network and dont have time to test every new DAT update so do your testing!!
