So does anyone have any pointers on this?  Are you just not worrying
about it since you can wipe the linked clones out at any time if they
get infected?  I'm sill worried about handling outbreak protection.
Don't care if the clone gets hosed but I don't want all my clones
getting infected with something and trying to spread it around.  If you
install AV on the base image and don't use persistent clones then they
will have to update signatures every time they boot from the day the
base image was created.  If you use persistent clones then their deltas
will grow because of signatures being added every day.  And then you've
got licensing and agents on linked clones trying to update from the
enterprise server with a pc name that is different than the base image
they were created from.  I don't think a lot of AV vendors have really
thought this type of situation through.
