Anti-Virus Software

The current version of McAfee Anti-virus software is:

Virusscan Enterprise 80i

Virus Definitions(DATs): 4845 or above

Scan Engine: 4400

The versions you find at the McAfee web site may differ from the ones here because we test each new release from McAfee to make certain they won't cause a problem on campus. We only release the updates that have been tested to work with our software standards.

AutoUpdate DAT files

McAfee discovers about 200 new viruses each month from around the world. Often, these newer viruses are not detected using the older data files. Before you can detect these new viruses, you must obtain the latest version of DAT files and install them to your existing version of VirusScan to update that program.
