Symantec's anti virus product, as we have said in previous reviews of it, is a real heavyweight, capable of supporting many clients and available on a multitude of platforms. We are focusing on the Windows release in this test. A seasoned anti virus product, and with a pedigree in the business world, so we had high hopes for the latest release.
Although only a point release in name, a lot of work has gone into the product since Installation was straightforward, though it took rather a long time. Initial scan also went through without incident, though it took a heavy toll on the machine and it was impossible to perform any meaningful use while scanning the files. During day-to-day use, we were disappointed to find that the main client application doscan.
This does not inspire confidence. The system offers a wide range of alerting options including email messages, broadcast messages and SNMP traps. User programs can also be set to run when specific alerts occur, allowing an increased range of responses to meet particular needs. We really like this, as when we applied our test viruses, the wide range of reporting options the anti virus application can send up the electronic equivalent of multiple flares to signal anyone and everyone that there is a threat.
The scan results will be displayed when the scan is finished. If a virus is found, click Repair to attempt a repair of the file, or Delete to delete the file. Click Close when finished.
