Re: Domino 6.52 Virus Protection

[Chris Whisonant <Chris.Whisonant@xxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

I used it between August 2002 and around October 2003 before switching to 
TrendMicro due to issues with Symantec. Trend 2.5 was great for me, but 
the latest 2.6SP1 has not been so hot for me, though others are having 
success with it.

I had a hard time getting Symantec to automatically download the virus 
updates and Symantec's iSeries support was pretty sparse at the time. I 
was generally told to uninstall AV and reinstall it. Trend's support is 
better, to me, but you have to stay on them as they have a habit of not 
replying quickly.

In our situation, Trend was also cheaper. It was just as cheap for us to 
buy Trend than it would have been to just renew our Symantec agreement.

My 2 cents...
