Manging Anti-Spyware with ePO 1

[Gufs99]

I just noticed that McAfee is offering an Anti-Spyware app. Now I know that it's probably intended for home use, but do you think I could install it in an enterprise environment and manage it with ePO?

VirusScan Enterprise 7.5 which is going beta March 29th should have the functionality to detect and clean adware/spyware. It is also supposed to detect buffer overflows. The full release should be available in June.

Thanks! I've been wondering when they were going to add that functionality. I figured it was a matter of time before they did.

Where did you get that info btw?

The current versions of VirusScan Enterprise detect adware/spyware but won't remove it. Are you sure the new version will add the capability of removing these programs?
