In answer to the second part of your question, unfortunately no you can't.
Each client computer with the av installed has a username and password field.

The trouble is the AV has about 4 different programs ( I think )running in
the task manager.

Which one, all of them. I've never done this before, so if this is the
solution coudl you please ellaborate on how to do it.

The Av support has been poor. All they say is that you need ports 80 and
8003 on the firewall open to make it work.
