McAfee Virus
Update/Upgrade Information
IT is currently installing McAfee VirusScan Enterprise
edition, version 7.0 on all computers. The software is
preconfigured to automatically update the virus
definition (DAT) files at 9am each morning. DAT files
ensure that your virus protection is constantly
updated as cures for new virus threats are published.
NOTE: Your computer must be active (running) to run
an update task. If your computer is not operating when
the task is scheduled to start, the task starts at the
next scheduled time if the computer is active, or when
the computer starts if you selected the Run missed
task option on the Schedule Settings,
Schedule tab.
If your computer does
not have McAfee VirusScan installed, you can download
it at
www.uh.edu. Click on “Faculty” or “Administration
and Staff”, and then click on “Computing”. Then select
“Anti-virus”, and click on the “VirusScan Enterprise
7.0” link. When you receive the “File download –
Security Warning” screen, click on “Run”, and follow
the directions.
The Helpdesk also can
send a CD copy with instructions if you prefer.
Call
the UHV Helpdesk at Ext. 399 (361-570-4399 from off
