Free AntiVirus for Businesses

Businesses may at times not be able to afford antivirus solutions for all work stations but there is an excellent alternative to "no antivirus solutions". ClamWin is an open-source antivirus scanner that can automatically update at times the users may set and ClamWin will automatically scan daily or weekly in the user settings.

The antivirus can be configured to run during the night or weekends when the stations are not in use. PC Virus Doctors' Dallas Computer Support uses the software as a second antivirus and is compatable with the primary antivirus. ClamWin can also be configured by default to scan incoming and outgoing Microsoft Outlook emails. Also email alerts may be sent to users when malware is detected.

Now there is no excuse for business owners to be absent of an antivirus on all machines in the office with up-to-date virus signatures and frequently scanned computers and laptops.
