Well, we're back at a Sorority cleaning viruses and spyware off systems
as they move in for this school season and have some interesting things
we've seen so far:
Systems returning from last season - with AVG 6 or 7 installed are clean
still (checked with NAV trial against the AVG installed package,
migrated to AVG 7 and removed NAV trial after).
Systems returning from last season that were running Computer Assoc
virus scanner - most had 2 or 3 trojans, not viruses.
Systems running McCrappy from last season - found updates not being
done, found 3~8 trojans and 0~13 viruses.
We get a batch of systems on Sat that are new residents, fresh out of
the Dorms - expect to see many hundreds of viruses (as detected by AVG
and NAV Trial).
Last year the only clean machines we tested were ones with valid/updated
NAV subscriptions and one that was just build and locked down by the IT
Guru mother of the resident.
