AntiVirus
A computer 'virus' is a type
of computer program, much like any other, except that it usually
has the ability to damage your data. Indeed, it is usually
designed to do just that. Why? Well, there are lots of people
about who think nothing of causing problems for other people.
No doubt some will even think that if you haven't taken steps
to protect yourself, you deserve what you get. So, they write
the program, and these days they usually disguise it so that
it can be delivered to you in a way you won't notice - such
as an e-mail attachment. You look at the mail, open the attachment
to see what it is, and... your computer is 'infected' and
your data is at risk.
It is impossible to stop all
viruses, but modern software can stop 99.99% of them - and
any it doesn't know about today, it almost certainly will
know about within a week. When your anti-virus system is installed,
it can be regularly updated over the Internet, on a daily
basis if necessary, to keep it as fully up-to-date as possible.
There
are a number of well-known vendors of email-virus scanning
software - McAfee, Sophos, Norton, Trend, Panda...
Which one to
use? Which vendor has the best record?
Just installing
a package is not the end. For these products to be effective
one must keep the virus signatures up to date. Whenever a
new virus is released on the Internet, you will be checking
with your vendor to see if they know about it, and if they
have new virus signatures for you to download.

Antivirus Solutions
for Email
Why not stop
email viruses before they even get to your offices?
Our technique
diverts your in-bound email to a specially built virus scanning
host. This host uses four independent commercial virus scanners
in sequence - IBM, Command, McAfee and Norton. If any of the
scanners detects a virus, the email is "quarantined", and
you are informed that a virus was detected and who the sender
was.
Virus detection
is a re-active situation. Someone somewhere must be effected
by any new virus, and commercial vendors must react quickly
to detect a signature and distribute the new signature to
the public.
