Hello. What antivirus software for a Windows NT Server can you recommend? Can it be downloaded for free? I want to manage the client computer directly from the server for checking for viruses. Unlike what we have right now on which every workstationhas its own installed antivirus software.

Either Symantec AV or Mcafee AV will run on an NT server. However check that you have the latest service packs and IE updates installed before you load either AV package. Neither is free and both are very good. You will want to check out their websites as both sell direct and you can price their SW on-line. For Management of server and clients the nod has to go to Symantec Anti-virus Corporate edition. It is easy to set up and fairly easy to implement to the client workstations. Mcafee is more complex in this regard but it can be done using their epolicy software.
