I heard this and it caught my attention. Instead of preventing certain applications from running (which is the current method), your anti-virus should allow certain ones to run (i.e. the ones you need, like your browser for instance). Isn't this better than the non-stop virus updates and the continuous threats?

I received an update notice and downloaded the latest version of yahoo toolbar. But now, instead of the free yahoo anti-spyware that was there before, there is an offer for a 30-day free trial with Norton anti-spy, etc. Where is the old, perpetually free version? Can I get it back?

I am planning to setup a new server machine based on Microsoft Windows 2003 server, but I am not sure to install which AntiVirus to better protect the resources from getting infected. Will it be better to use Norton solutions or McAfee, and which version of both are availble for Microsoft Windows 2003 Server Enterprise Edition(SP1)?
