I was looking for virus protection for a very small network of computers. If Sophos will handle 200 at a time, it should easily meet my needs. Thank you for bringing this to my attention.
The security software I have doesn’t check for rootkits. This is something I have just become aware of as being a problem. So Sophos sounds like the way to go. And it’s free! Love it, thanks.
I think this product is the cool one in the industry. my company has used it for quite some time. and it’s worth the money.
Generally I don’t learn article on blogs, but I would like to say that this write-up very pressured me to check out and do it! Your writing taste has been amazed me. Thank you, quite nice post.
