I do not have an .MSI for installing Forefront. I only have an EXE named "FCSClientPackage.exe". I believe if I had an .MSI and I put it in the "\\HOMESERVER\Software\Add-Ins" folder, then I would be able to install the software via the "Server Add-Ins" feature on the "Home Server Console". This feature does not recognize the Forefront installer EXE. How do you go about installing Microsoft ForeFront on WHS? I do not have an .MSI for installing Forefront.

When I installed it, I had to download a couple of updates from Microsoft Update, but when that was done it just ran like a charm... ForeFront is in my opinion the best AntiVirus software on the market, so I really wanted it to work with my WHS too. And being a Windows Server 2003 underneath the WHS consol and all, ofcourse it did. I use Microsoft ForeFront on my WHS, and it seems to work like a charm…

Be sure which version of AVG you are looking at ;-) Last summer I got the 2 licenses for two year deal for about $79.00. Now its 2 licenses for one year for $79.00. So not as good of a deal. With Avast coming out after Philip and I did some of this research, it's sort of a moot point. But AVG is a viable solution nonetheless. I bought it because I had to have an AV and Avast was not even ready for Beta testing yet. But now we all have a choice. LOL Philip is correct. Be sure which version of AVG you are looking at ;-)
