[itdiscuss] antivirus

[Roger Wright]

Several of the free products are very good but lack centralized management.
In a network of any size, it's great being able to manage the agent
settings, quickly view the status of all machines, push the installations,
schedule scans, etc.   If those features are not of value to you, then the
stand-alone products are worth considering.

As far as I have been able to discover, the Comodo Firewall + Antivirus is
free for personal and corporate use (from their site: "free means free").
Please let me know if anyone knows otherwise.

 

An article at PCMag.com states, "And it isn't just free for noncommercial
use-it's free to all, period. According to Comodo CEO Melih Abdulhayoglu, it
will remain free indefinitely."

I don't know of any AV solutions that are licensed for free corporate use.
All of the "Terms of use" agreements I have read on the free ones say that
you are only allowed to install it on a computer that is for personal use.

Hey all,

 

Any suggestions for good free AV software?  We are thinking about doing away
with our active directory server and our domain, and we currently have AVG
with a client/server installation.
