<div dir="ltr">We were recently talking about Anti Virus software. For those that don't monitor Techsoup's offerings: It looks like Bitdefender is now available as a software donation too. The newsletter said "new for 2014", but it looks like it's probably available as of now. Bitdefender is pretty highly rated, from what I understand.<div>

At Loudonville we use AVG Enterprise for our public and staff computers. AVG Free license states that it is for home use only. I contacted them to see if they would give us authorization to use AVG Free on our computers since we were a public library, they declined. But they did offer us the AVG Enterprise for the same $7 that we were paying for Symantec through TechSoup and we could use it on everything. We have been virus and malware free for the three years that we have been using it, so I'm a happy girl.<br>

Good Morning to everyone,<br>
<br>
I have recently came across a dilemma that we are having with the staff computers at our central library and the branches. Even though we let the staff browse on the computers where they would like to we’re still having trouble with the staff computers becoming infected with spyware and viruses with Microsft Security Esstentials installed. I know this is a good free antivirus, but it isn’t doing the job anymore. Currently I have Trend Micro Worry-Free Business Standard Security at my residence and have no problems at all. Was wondering what all of the other IT people are setting up on their staff computers to keep them clean?<br>
<br>
<br>
<br>
As a side note, our wishlist is going to be due to try to get extra equipment for the libraries. Was wondering what printers and wireless routers people have gotten to upgrade theirs recently. Currently we just have Cisco Linksys WRT54G which has a very poor coverage and distance from main unit is pitiful. Just want to say thanks for all the feedback given for this and have a great weekend.<br>
<br>
<br>
<br>
Thanks again,<br>
<br>
