    Sure, I've tried using nothing before. Didn't really get me far though. icon_sad.gif

    :D

    I was in a hurry before I left for work friday and didnt do a quick scan on the post before I hit Submit.

    At least you guys got a little humor on a friday eh?

    Anyways, I signed up for the Longhorn server beta and saw the Client Security download too. Just was wondering what you guys thought of it and if it was the latest attempt to get money out of people again by MS

    I'm off for another day of studying for 70-270 icon_rolleyes.gif

    I'm glad you have a sense of humor too, and can take some good natured ribbing from your friends here. :D

    Regarding the Client Security, is that the latest iteration of Windows Defender?

    Here is an excerpt from the FAQ page at http://www.microsoft.com/forefront/clientsecurity/faq.mspx

    Q. What is Microsoft Forefront Client Security?
    A. Microsoft Forefront Client Security provides unified malware protection for business desktops, laptops and server operating systems that is easier to manage and control. Built on the same highly successful Microsoft protection technology already used by millions of people worldwide, Forefront Client Security helps guard against emerging threats such as spyware and rootkits as well as traditional threats such as viruses, worms, and Trojan horses. By delivering simplified administration through central management, and providing critical visibility into threats and vulnerabilities, Forefront Client Security helps you protect your business with confidence and efficiency. Forefront Client Security integrates with your existing infrastructure software, such as Active Directory, and complements other Microsoft security technologies for enhanced protection and greater control.

    Looks like MS wants to be a major player in the A/V market. This should make Norton and McAfee VERY happy. (Though I think both of those products are junk anyway icon_evil.gif )

    After reading the FAQ's, I will wait...THIS looks mmuch more fun...

    Forefront Client Security is an excellent product. I've attended several of the webcasts where Microsoft introduced Forefront Client Security (FCS). With FCS, you can manage everything from a central intuitive console, you can easily deploy all your antivirus clients, and lots more My favorite feature is that there are many antivirus engines you can build into FCS. For example, you can have Mcaffee, Symantec, Kaspersky, and other engines all running against files. All vendors release updates at different times of the day. This helps ensure your FCS antivirus are update as soon as possible with the latest virus definitions and are protected as much as possible. It's basically running 5+ antivirus programs on 1 computer without the performance hit. There are many other good things about FCS, but I can definitely seeing it becoming a very successful product for businesses in the future.
