Re: Counterfeit Software and SBS 2003



I'd tend to agree. A good rule of thumb - if the price appears to be too
good to be true?... It is.

Well Hopefully you already have Virus Software on the server.
You can try Microsofts Defender

But I doubt if there were bad things, Most of those Places are too stupid
to do anything with the software.
Just Dumb Thugs who want to make a quick buck selling the same license
over and over and over again.

I recently had the misfortune of purchasing several copies of XP Pro
online,
only to find out during a difficult install that they were counterfeits.
I'm
worried that since I was able to get them onto my domain that they may
have
had a malicious payload.... I installed using a domain admin account.

I've alerted Microsoft to offending retailer...

Question: How can I check my SBS server for spyware or malware? I
obviously
changed my passwords.... but we are a corporate WAN.....connected to the
internet 24/7, not using 2 nics or ISA (On my todo list....)
