    It might be line endings, but I'm guessing he's running a batch script via Task Scheduler to call ftp.exe, and he never checks the output or return codes for failure.

    After they released SEP 11.2, Symantec actually turned back into a reasonable product. From a client perspective it's fast and un-intrusive. Of course, i just install the antivirus part, not the firewall or policy or make-your-coffee modules. Antivirus should do antivirus.

    For policy, can't a Samba server act as a domain controller and give out policy (at least NT4-style policy) to workstations?

    Perhaps he doesn't want a disgruntled (or gruntled) Comcast mid-manager maliciously canceling his service, so he wants to remain semi-anonymous.
