Re: Deep Freeze & Boot Times

["Bombard, Charles L" <Charles.Bombard () CCV EDU>]

We use deepfreeze here. I also use Group policy. Our boot times are not
bad. Our login times are longer than I would like. Our login times can
be linked to the use of Adobe Creative suite. It adds a ton of junk to
the default profile. I would be happy to chat off list if you would
like.

Does anyone use Deep Freeze on their campus and have horrible boot
times?  One of our issues is that Symantec Virus Definitions are updated
every time a computer is booted and that takes a lot of time.  Are there
other alternatives that you all are using?
