New version of Dr. Web Enterprise Suite brings more protection for corporate users
October 24, 2006
Doctor Web, Ltd. announces the release of Dr.Web Enterprise Suite v.4.33.1 for
large corporate networks and for medium and small businesses.

In comparison to previous versions, the performance of Enterprise Suite v.4.33.1
has become faster and it consumes fewer computer resources. This avoids any inconveniance for users related
to a reduced computer performance.

server cannot be accessed from the internet, such user has just to launch the standard updating utility and bring
his virus definition bases up-to-date.
