Don’t worry about the license expiration notice currently appearing on all Windows machines with UVM’s NOD32 antivirus package installed.
ETS has informed us that they are aware of the notification and are already in the renewal process. ETS also tells us that this alert should disappear on its own with no user intervention required.
If you are running a Windows machine of any variety and do not yet have NOD32 installed (NOD32 is the normally green “eyeball” icon that appears in your system tray), it is time to make the switch.
Additionally, if you installed NOD32 more than a month or two ago, chances are you are running an obsolete version which can make your machine run more slowly than it should. You should upgrade NOD32 to the most current version.
To download the 32 bit version of NOD32 from http://www.uvm.edu/software
Remove any other installed antivirus software via the Add/Remove Programs control panel (Windows XP) or the Programs control panel (Vista).
If you have Symantec Antivirus of any flavor installed, also remove Symantec LiveUpdate using the same control panel.
Restart your computer, install NOD32 from the file you downloaded previous, and restart again.
If you are updating NOD32, the good news is that you can simply install the new client right over the old. The installer will remove the old version during the process.
