Do you ever run a computer without an antivirus and/or firewall?
selu replied to bladedanny's topic in General Chat
True but if you noticed a slowdown in what you were doing on your computer you would just reboot. No antivirus is flawless keylogging, spam broadcasting, can all happen with antivirus running. Its all about the user experiance no av = fast pc reboot to fix means a monkey can fix it no need for geeks onsite. -

if you run steadystate deepfreeze timegate etc why use antivirus as well because even if you get a virus you could just reboot your computer to fix it. In fact if you want to test a virus to see what it does then this is a good way to do it. If you run an internet cafe or a public pc system or primary school without a domain etc just to access internet services etc why would you want bloatware antivirus to manage all you need is a pc with any of the above software installed to do this. Computer broken reboot it to fix no virus can infect a read only system use a pen drive to save docs lock c:\ no virus no antivirus no updates no problems this is the only way i would set up a pc running no antivirus. -
Quick update I am off to Birmingham tommorow to collect some computers for the IT Suite if anyone is removing any working tft monitors between Blackpool and Birmingham I would gladly take them off your hands. Steve;)

Firstly thanks Ric you have got the ball rolling. So far I have upgraded our reception classrooms with the TFT Screens donated by Ric previously they had 14 inch compaq crt monitors. Guess what I saw teachers cleaning their own desks after the upgrade. I have pluged in some of the Thin stations donated by Ric Compaq T20S they work and look like they will be very easy to set up this is the future ! The reaction re the tft monitors was fantastic so we ha have a new wishlist. We can make good use of any amount of TFT Monitors 15" or over (that work) Compaq T20 or similar thinstations Suggestions of how to get some free Microsoft server software and cals to operate the thin stations legitimately. I have been away for a week at Glastonbury so am now refreshed and inspired the future is green. I was looking at green power wind turbines solar power etc. We are applying for a grant for soler panels to power our IT suite if successfull we could become the first school in the UK to be running of free power and free reused IT equipment or am I wrong.

All of your suggestions are very useful. As you can see I need advice on procuring some free / recycled pc base stations for a primary school. The whys and wherefores on email filtering have long since been dealt with on this forum. I can look after myself re the spammers This is a genuine post / plea on behalf of a hard working school that has fallen on hard times. Despite this we are a “good school” We aim to improve the learning environment here beyond recognition with your help I am sure we can achieve that goal. With your help/ donated equipment we will be podcasting our own radio station. The first production will be dedicated to the people who have helped us. Let’s keep on topic and focused. Thanks selu

Landline number. Collection wise I have a volvo estate and a petrol account so collection from anywhere in the UK could be possable. Obviously Lancashire Cumbria Manchester Liverpool area would be best but to meet our goal I am prepared to travel that extra mile as you can see.
