We investigated the issue of a license agreement with MacAfee, and it
turns out that they will issue a "group" license limited to ten users
who would have the right to do a virus check of the various LANs and
all their stations.  In other words, ten lab managers would have
unlimited right to use the product once we pay a $1500 fee
(approximately). At the same time, we are allowed to distribute the
product as shareware for individual users.  My interpretation: I
cannot use the product, except on a single station like any other
individual user, since we did not pay for the license, but I can make
it available to others for their personal use, leaving the question of
payment to their conscience.  It also means that I do not "distribute"
the copy to individual users who happen to be the office secretaries
in the various departments.  On the other hand, I do not feel overly
pressured to use this product since F-Prot (we payed the suggested
fee) seems to work just fine.
