Seemingly random AV thought

ByMike McBride Reading Time: 1 minute

Oh, want to know what I learned today? When you remotely install Symantec’s Corporate edition AV product, make sure the user either has Outlook closed when you do it, or restarts Outlook immediately after you do it. The Outlook add-in does some things that make certain features of Outlook go pretty bonkers. Nothing a quick restart of Outlook won’t solve, but why put users through that panic? Especially when it’s your boss’s machine that displays the problem. Oops! *L*

    John Udell has written a story about Personal RSS Aggregators.

    Looks like Microsoft has some interesting things in the plans as far as add-on’s for Windows Server 2003. The most interesting thing I saw was the Virtual Server that would let businesses migrate to 2003 but still have a place to run legacy applications that aren’t compatible with 2003.
