Can't really say. I think our problem had more to do with issues with us having to contact Faronics for support. They packaged Viper with the Deepfreeze product. I know there are several others that have had good luck with Viper, hence we went for it from Faronics. One issue we found was that with it packeage with DF, it created a v-drive (thawed drive). So other clean boot cd's wouldn't detect the virus if it made it to the v-drive as it was a virtual drive and not a partition. Made for some fun. In talking with others on this list, they love Viper, and it has worked great for them. I just think the packaging with Faronics didn't work out for us at this time. I'm not ready to throw Viper to the wolves, just that the version provided by Faronics didn't have all the options that we saw with the enterprise version from Viper. Hopefully the work we did with Faronics these last 2 weeks will help them out with other deployments in the future.

I just did a purchase order for Vipre and it's getting installed. (You are talking about the server-based virus protection program, aren't you?)
