Actually we recommend Trend Micro as our personal experience has been that it is very VFP friendly. Combined with how easily it is centrally administered, makes it a slam dunk.

Actually now we are pretty sure that is not the problem. What we did find out though is that just before the problems started they moved the database/tables to a new WIndows 2000 server (no we don't think its 2000, we things its a hardware or software problem with the new server).
