Subject: RE: Another F(*&^ virus! (OT)I haven't worked with any of the other packages, so I can't compare. It seems to do ok, although they don't have any "ALERT" system, and always seem to be the last to get a definition out. I still don't know if they have the Vote virus covered.
They automatically create a logon script to push the defs to the desktop, so as long as you make sure the server gets updated before everyone logs on it works fine. Our work hours make this a non-issue. Remote users have a problem with the speed.
I do know that I gave up on active desktop scanning. It slowed my workstations down too much. I've been lucky that my folks get a lot of e-mail, but aren't big on downloading files. So I'm scanning Exchange and Outlook. Personally, I think way too many of the virii are being caught at the desktop rather than the Exchange server. They also have no filtering/blocking.
As soon as I can free up some money I'll most likely dump the Panda for Exchange and get Sybari.
