Note that while we have listed a number of anti-virus web sites here (for your convenience) we use and recommend
ONLY the VET product.Vet was originally developed in Adelaide, South Australia and was such an excellent product
that the Vet company was purchased by International Software giant Computer Associates.
Make sure that you download BOTH the virus software (when it is updated - once a month or so) AND the virus
update file (which is updated several times DAILY).
To see what version VET software that you are running right click on the VET icon in the task bar in the
bottom right hand corner of your screen. Choose VERSION from the pop-up menu. The version should be at least
10.53.0.4 (current version on 30/10/2002) and your virus macro file date should be no older than a WEEK! (We
update this file from Vet automatically several times a day to make sure that our computer network is totally
protected).
If, when you go to the
Vet Site
you see that the current virus software version is later than your version (their current version is shown in
the left hand column) then download and install the Virus SOFTWARE. After downloading and installing the
software (if required) make sure that you at ALSO download and install the virus UPDATE file as well. Then
check YOUR version to make sure that you have installed it correctly.
If you have more than one computer then you need to install the virus updates on ALL of the computers as if
one of them is not protected then it can become infected and then continually re-infect the other computers.
Unless you need to save your VET updates to floppy disk to use them on another computer, we suggest that you
use the VET Easy Install option when prompted to do so. |
