NOTICE: Move from Symantec Anti-virus to Forefront Anti-virus


Greetings all!

With the economic troubles that we are all going through here at Colorado College we have decided to change our Anti-Virus solution from Symantec Anti-Virus to Microsoft Forefront, saving the College over $20,000 annually. We are now in the process of removing Symantec and installing Forefront on all
College owned PC’s on our network. This process should be completed over the next two months.

You should not notice Symantec being uninstalled or Forefront being installed on your computer. It will happen automatically and by design should not interrupt your work. Again, this will ONLY affect PC Users. If you do notice anything or have any interruptions or errors on your computer because of this process please let us know by contacting the Help Desk (HelpDesk@ColoradoCollege.edu or x6449) so that we can rectify the issue.

Thank you for your time and patience during this process!

NOTE: The most common error that can come from this is when you open Microsoft Outlook. For instructions on how to remove the Symantec plug-in from Outlook click here.
