Many thanks for the reply. I am quite new to newsgroups and couldnt work out
how to reply as when I did it said cannot resolve domain.

So with the software it is case of installing it on each client machine
manually rather than being able to map to them from the server in anyway?

Thanks for the help
 
This version of the product is really intended for home users, or small
offices--I've installed it in three small offices with between half-a dozen
and two dozen workstations each, and in each case a Windows 2000 server.

If you get to the level where you are using SMS or some other method to push
installs out, there is some information in the .install newsgroup--notably
from one Alexey Semibratov who says he has a script that works, but you need
to register with his site to see it--and I've not gone to that length.

In a managed environment, there is a Microsoft KB article about the beta
product you should be aware of:

http://support.microsoft.com/kb/892375 End users may be prompted to allow or
block administrative actions that originate from a central management tool
after they install Windows AntiSpyware (Beta) on a computer that is managed
by Systems Management Server 2003

This is definitely an issue--your users can see and block management
applications as they choose.
