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. MKessler@HUM.SFSU.EDU
