F-Secure Betas Antivirus for Windows Home ServerDATE: 02-MAY-2008 Do you use Windows Home Server? In spite of one nasty, if rare bug, I think it's a great product that makes home networks much better organized and secure.Now F-Secure has opened up their beta for a security add-in product for Windows Home Server. It automatically scans files for malware when they are written to or accessed from a Windows Home Server. Scheduled scans can also be set. If you provide good feedback F-Secure will give a free 12-month subscription when the product ships.You might wonder whether it's wise to run a beta security product, and normally I wouldn't. I enthusiastically signed up for this one because I see fewer opportunities for application conflicts on a Windows Home Server than on a normal Windows desktop. And F-Secure makes excellent security products with malware detection among the very best. I've been running it for a few days now and sense no problems. You've got to decide what you're comfortable with though. WHS does make a good point at which to add a second AV product and scanner to your work, especially in as much as F-Secure uses multiple engines in their product.Originally published on the PC Magazine security blog, Security Watch.
