RE: Network spyware detection

["Handy, Mark (IT)" <Mark.Handy () morganstanley com>]

One problem here is that SAV only detects about 500 spyware products and
only provides a notification of detection.
There is no cleaning options involved.

Ben,
        Symantec Antivirus 9.0 has that option built in.  With SAV
Enterprise you can manage all your SAV clients and have them scan for
AD/Spy ware.  It is not an automatic scan, but it can be setup as a
scheduled scan.
The schedule and the policy are pushed from the Enterprise server to the
clients.


Chris.

hi,
 
do any of you have recommendations/preferences regarding spyware
detection
software appropriate for win2k networks?  spybot s&d 1.3 is part of our
base
workstation image, however, we'd like to find something that can be
controlled & maintained from an admin perpsective (e.g broadcast
updates,
tweaks, et al).  thanks in advance!
