How do you detect ADS (Alternate Data Stream) being they are subterranean and hide inside the file system, invisible to 
Window directory tools and most AV products ?? I heared Symantec Corporate edition has protection if turned on but I'm 
not sure, anyone ???

Ben,
        Symantec Antivirus 9.0 has that option built in.  With SAV
Enterprise you can manage all your SAV clients and have them scan for AD/Spy
ware.  It is not an automatic scan, but it can be setup as a scheduled scan.
The schedule and the policy are pushed from the Enterprise server to the
clients.


Chris.

hi,
 
do any of you have recommendations/preferences regarding spyware detection
software appropriate for win2k networks?  spybot s&d 1.3 is part of our base
workstation image, however, we'd like to find something that can be
controlled & maintained from an admin perpsective (e.g broadcast updates,
tweaks, et al).  thanks in advance!
