If anyone wants a trial version of ESET let me know, I can get you a 30 
day trial license so you can compare it with all the other AV software 
you are checking out.

We are running a promo this month where we will give you up to 150 
Exchange protection licenses free for a year with purchase of the 
workstation/server license.  The promo is available on top of our 
non-profit discount which is pretty substantial.

email sales at amdgtechnology.com for more info, mention the IT Discussion 
Forum
