Symantec AntiVirus Corporate Edition for Vista


Recommended Posts

Symantec has made available, since 19th of December, a beta version of Symantec AntiVirus (Corporate Edition) for dowload.

"Existing Symantec customers testing pre-release Windows Vista have requested Symantec AntiVirus Corporate Edition to protect their corporate environment while they conduct their testing.

Symantec has released a new version of Symantec AntiVirus Corporate Edition that has been changed to run on the beta Windows operating system. This is not a beta of Symantec's Vista Symantec AntiVirus Corporate Edition product. The main feature set for this release is focused on protection of workstations, with some UI and manageability limitations that do not affect the product's protection capability on pre-release versions of Windows Vista. It will be available on December 19th for download from Symantec's FileConnect system.

Full technical support will not be offered for Symantec AntiVirus Corporate Edition on pre-release versions of Microsoft Vista. Customers who call in for technical support will be directed to an online form where they can enter in information regarding the issue for submission to Symantec. The submissions will be reviewed by Symantec for appropriate escalation.

In late 2006, Symantec will release a version of Symantec AntiVirus Corporate Edition that has been designed to leverage Windows Vista's new features. This version will be released concurrent to Microsoft's release of the Vista client operating system. Dates for the beta and final versions of this product are currently being determined."

Corp version is fine. Norton's what you should be worried about.

Thanks for the news :)

That's right. :) Sorry about that. I didn't realize it was SAV and not Norton. It's weird. Same company having two completely different (one bloated, one good) AntiVirus products.

In about 5-7 years it will be like this:

remember Symantec? ewwwwww that was bad.

May not be true if they improve... :/

Symantec is too big of a company now to just go down like that... If they see their sales drop, they will definately improve stuff... ;)

SAC is a hell of a lot better than Norton but still isn't the pinnacle of antivirus programs as people on Neowin like to make out... I'd still choose NOD32 anyday. Still, if Symantec replaced Norton with SAC then that would be a lot better for everyone, though they'd need to add a few flashy logos here and there to appeal to the Average Joe - it's a shame because Norton used to be quite passable.

    • Google are hyprocrites for signing this. They have been pulling the same dirty tactics as Microsoft, only they do it on Android and ChromeOS.
    • In some countries the law has forced Microsoft to display a menu on a fresh install of Windows which asks which web browser you want and it will install that browser. This doesn't add any bloat to Windows. It simply an additional step when setting up a new PC.
    • Chrome is also a first party browser on Android and ChromeOS. And on those systems, Google is pulling the same dirty tactics as Microsoft does on Windows.
    • Unofficial script lets you install unreleased Windows 11 features without Microsoft Account by Sayan Sen Microsoft has been steadily evolving the Windows Insider Program over the years, introducing new channels and testing paths that allow enthusiasts to experience upcoming and yet-to-be-released Windows features (some interesting hidden ones too) before they reach the public. However, one long-standing requirement has remained largely unchanged as users are generally expected to enroll in the Program and with a Microsoft account. That's where a third-party tool called "OfflineInsiderEnroll" can help. OfflineInsiderEnroll is said to be a lightweight script that enables access to Windows Insider Program builds on systems that are not signed in with a Microsoft account. Essentially the tool configures the necessary Insider settings locally and hence allows users to select and switch between available preview channels while continuing to receive builds through the normal Windows Update channel. If you are wondering how it manages to do so, it is made possible by a Registry value known as TestFlags. When configured to"0x20", Windows stops communicating with Microsoft's online Insider enrollment services thus preventing locally configured Insider settings from being overwritten. This allows the script to apply its own channel configuration directly through the Registry as Windows Update does not verify whether a device has been officially enrolled in the Insider Program or not. Previously the utility has had already supported the traditional Insider branches including Dev, Beta, and Release Preview. However following Microsoft’s recent restructuring of its preview channels, the script has now been updated. The latest OfflineInsiderEnroll version, 2.6.6, adds support for the newly introduced Insider channel lineup. As such, users can now choose from several Experimental channels in addition to Beta and Release Preview options. The update also retains tools for refreshing the Insider cache, resetting Insider settings, and completely stopping Insider enrollment when needed. Keep in mind though that will need elevated privileges when running the script (run as Admin). You can get the latest version of OfflineInsiderEnroll from this page on its official GitHub repo.
