Students Get Symantec (formerly Norton) Antivirus Free!
(http://www.uni.edu/antivirus)
Due to the explosive virus
situations on the Internet, it is imperative that anyone connecting their
personal computer to the networks at UNI be running current virus
protection software. To facilitate this, the
University
of
Northern Iowa
entered into a license agreement making
Symantec's (formerly Norton)
AntiVirus
Corporate Edition software available to all "currently enrolled
students".
The licensing cost is covered by Student Computer Fee funds, and the
software for 2000, XP and Vista can be downloaded for free. Students with Windows
98/98ME or Macintosh or those who prefer a software CD can obtain it by
paying a minimal additional CD charge via their university bill. If you
have a slow (dialup) connection you will probably prefer to obtain this CD.
It can be obtained by going to the
Computer
Consulting
Center
(ITTC Building Room 36) and presenting your
valid UNI ID.
Note: Faculty and Staff are NOT ELIGIBLE for this program.
