Symantec Endpoint Protection Supported Os
Symantec Endpoint Protection Supported Os
Symantec AntiVirus 10.2.4000.4 registered or AVG AntiVirus Free edition?
I managed to get the registered Symantec AV 10.2.4000.4 from my office’s intranet… but I am not sure whether I should use this Symantec AV or AVG antivirus free edition. From one of my colleagues (who works with me in same office) I came to know that Symantec AV was not detecting some of the malwares from his system, so he went forward with Symantec Endpoint Protection and finally got rid of those malwares. Just wanted to inform that I can not use Symentec Endpoing Protection on my system as it is not supported for the OS which I am using. So the only option I have is either; registered Symantec AV 10.2.4000.4 or any free anti-virus available on net. Knowlegable guys out there… please suggest.
Thanks
do this on-line scan first : http://www.eset.com/onlinescan/
only if you think you might be infected now.
Then
i suggest you go and get Avast : http://www.avast.com/eng/avast_4_home.html
you can not get a better Antivirus with anti-spyware system for free.
it has many features you will have to pay for in other systems.
don’t forget to register or you will only have it for 30 days
by registering you will get a licence for a full year.
just re-register at the end of the year to get another one year licence.
if you do not like the look of Avast
then microsoft supply a system for free..
Microsoft Security Essentials : http://www.microsoft.com/Security_Essentials/
the next best free one is Avira

remember you must only have one antivirus system on your computer at anyone time.
AVG Free contains basic antivirus protection (base level only).
AVG Free does not contain Anti-Rootkit protection so rootkits may be hidden in your system.
AVG Free does not contain Anti-Spam which can monitor and block SPAM and fraudulent e-mails.
AVG Free does not contain the new Safe Downloads & Instant Messaging protection (Web Shield technology)
so it does not screen your downloads and communication for viruses and spyware.
AVG Free only includes the Safe Search protection which provides you with advice on search results.
It does not protect against infected pages. Only AVG paid versions contain the Safe Surf technology.
if you want protection from malware (malicious software)
then buy malwarebytes : http://www.malwarebytes.org/
