Feel free to forward the original article post. I'll post it on OndemandAccess.com if I don't hear from Brian soon about doing it on his site.... where are those two they have been awfully quiet?

Preferably, our helpdesk would benefit from giving our customers with spy ware problems a link to this article. But of course, this is only if it's ok with Jim (?)

I'd like to send it to my Help Desk to give to users if that's ok. A couple of notes: While AVG Free Edition is a good AV for what it costs, it should be noted that the only E-mail client it directly supports is Outlook. Also, in terms of updates, if I find a user has dialup, and hasn't been keeping their system up to date, I usually have them order the Security CD from Microsoft. It hasn't been updated in quite a while, but includes updates up to October 2003. It at least cuts down on the number of updates users have to download. It also comes with CA E-Trust. I know many have some thoughts on CA, but it does support more than AVG and includes a year of updates. Every once in a while I also have to pull out the big guns and refer a user to CWShredder for the CoolWebSearch spyware that Spybot and Adaware sometimes have problems with. - ******************************************************** This weeks sponsor Emergent Online Thinssentials Utilities Using the latest software, hardware, networking technologies, proven technical expertise, proprietary software and best practices, EOL provides custom-tailored solutions for each client?s mission and specific goals. http://www.go-eol.com ********************************************************** Useful Thin Client Computing Links are available at: http://thin.net/links.cfm *********************************************************** For Archives, to Unsubscribe, Subscribe or set Digest or Vacation mode use the below link: http://thin.net/citrixlist.cfm
