RE: Network spyware detection

["Rocky Heckman" <rocky.he () g-wizinnovations com>]

You might be able to do something like this with your existing software if
you set it up with SMS Server. So that any updates are pushed to the clients
on login. Just about anything can be automatically updated from a central
source with SMS. If your clients have direct connections to the internet,
then you could configure the software to automatically check for signature
updates and things. I am not sure about spybot, but I think Ad-Aware let's
you do that.

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!
