| hi all,
|
| please forgive me if i ask some silly questions i will try to explain
myself
| the best i can. i have the task of installing some anti virus software on
6
| networked computers for a small business. norton antivirus 2002 is
currently
| on all computers but has recently expireed. i am wondering if renewing
this
| version and getting the latest 'live updates' would be sufficient to
protect
| against newest viri ie:w32.blaster.worm? my other question is is it right
to
| pay a $32au renewal fee per machine? or should it be payment for just one
| computer? if i was to purchase norton antivirus 2003 would i have to
| purchase 6 licences (1 per machine) or just the one? if just the one, then
| how do i go about installing it on 6 different machines? again sorry for
any
| silly questions, i have never set up virus protection on networked
machines.
| i would have emailed symantec however could not find the option on their
| site
|
| any help would be greatly apprectiated
|
| regards
| -michael
Do all of the machines connect to the internet through a common connection?
You can renew the subscription service to get updated virus defs. Or you can
upgrade to the newer version, and that gives you another year of updates. In
your case you need to buy 6 of something. They have a network option, in
that case it is a minimum of 10.
Something to think about is that at some point they will no longer support
it, and you will have to move forward to a newer version anyway. That is why
you should also consider something different.
At this point you must renew what is expiring, or risk being affected by new
inventions. I'm sure their sales department wil be helpful if you decide to
stick with NAV.
