ITS provides in-depth technical support for McAfee VirusScan and limited support for other anti-virus

products. Make sure that you have only one anti-virus product installed, that your virus definitions (DAT

files) are kept current and your anti-virus software is configured properly.

This document covers the basics of installing, configuring and using McAfee VirusScan Enterprise 8.5i.

Product Overview

worms, potentially unwanted code and programs. VSE is licensed for use on UH owned computers and

home computers (one license only) for active UH faculty, staff and students. It supports Windows 2000,

items can be automatically deleted after a specified number of days or selectively deleted

or restored.

o Incremental scan engine updates

o Two versions of the scan engine, 32-bit and 64-bit
