Most e-mail clients may scan e-mail attachment for viruses to prevent users from spreading viruses by accident. I think the ISP, web host, and routers online may also have antiivirus programs.Skeithex wrote:they should have something to scan the email before it even gets open.

I've never heard of a ISP having AV on their actual service to scan stuff.

Some ISP provide Norton or McAfee Antivirus to customers as part of their ISP subscription.Skeithex wrote:I've never heard of a ISP having AV on their actual service to scan stuff.

I'm guesing the licensing fees are not very worth it for the ISP because few people actually download and install the antivirus to their PC, Most people who buy a computer made by HP, Dell, and other big brand may already have a subscription of McAfee, Norton, and other antivirus which come with their PC, or a store sold them an AV.Skeithex wrote:Ahh yes they do that, but I've been hearing they been pulling back on that.

I've dealt with people who don't get it, most come back with a badly infected PC.froggyboy604 wrote:I'm guesing the licensing fees are not very worth it for the ISP because few people actually download and install the antivirus to their PC, Most people who buy a computer made by HP, Dell, and other big brand may already have a subscription of McAfee, Norton, and other antivirus which come with their PC, or a store sold them an AV.Skeithex wrote:Ahh yes they do that, but I've been hearing they been pulling back on that.
