So what are we supposed to use for virus protection on 5536?
Nothing seems to work or install properly!

Re: virus protection?

McAfee VirusScan Enterprise Beta III Refresh works now. You can go to the
mcafee website and download it from the Enterprise downloads.

Re: virus protection?

Thanks Tom.
I'll install tomorrow and post back the results.
I haven't had any success so far with other products.

Open the Security Center and click on the link for PC-Chillin.

Re: virus protection?

Free AVG.

You just have to launch it off the deskstop icon again after a restart.
Mostly.

Re: virus protection?

Just to add:

AVG FREE works absolutly fine for me on Vista PR-1. The install went without
a hitch and it runs everytime I start up.

Thanks

Free Avast failed on me. I followed the link in the security centre to
download PC-Cillin, works fine on 5536.

Re: virus protection?

Symantec Antivirus for Vista (beta - 10.0.1.628) - part of Symantec Business
Pack appears to be working OK on 5536.

Re: virus protection?

After installing PC-cillin Internet Security 14, the virus definition update
will not complete - gets down to last 2% of the downlad and then says my
internet connection has stopped working - which it has not. So it is
installed, but out of date.
TIA
