I bought a couple of copies of DeepFreeze Standard to keep a standard image on a few public terminals at my office. It's great so far, but unfortunately, I can't keep an updated Symantec Anti-Virus virus definition list.
In order for me to keep it updated, I have to "thaw" out the DeepFreeze'd partition, and update it, then "freeze" again with that day's updated list.
Kind of annoying.
I thought if I could partition the hard drive, and just freeze one of the partition, that would work. However, it seems that the virus definition list changes a registry key that flags SAV to inform it is "up to date." Unfortunately, after a reboot, the registry key gets turned back and the virus definition list needs to be updated again, growing bigger and bigger at start up.
I figured, maybe, I could just use a secondary Anti-Virus scanner (portableapps.com > ClamAV) to run on the machine, which should work. However, the portable version of ClamAV for Windows isn't a real-time av scanner, so someone has to manually run the scan to detect viruses and what not.
Maybe someone else has encountered a problem like this? Any suggestions would be helpful. Thank you.
