Hi! I'm using Messenger LIVE, and I have symantec antivirus corporate edition
I am a university student, so the university allows you to download the
symantec corporate edition, however, no one will give support for it (uni or
symantec)

my question is is there a way to get symantec antivirus to scan incoming
files received by messenger live?

I looked at the symantec website from top to bottom, the only things i found
were to
a) enable the instant message component in auto-protect within the antivirus
program. for me, i have not found any instant message component at all in the
antivirus program
b) point to the file ccIMscan.exe in messenger live to scan incoming files.
i believe this to be for a different version of antivirus because it is not
on my system

has anyone gotten these two programs to work together?

thanks
mike

My understanding is that when the file is downloading to a temp directory it
is being scanned by Symantec AV. I do not know of a way to add a plug-in
into Messenger that will work with Corporate Edition. I think the Norton
2006 software (retail home user version) has the type of plug in you are
looking for.

See

for addiitonal details.
