Anti-Virus Software Provided for Students

To make the campus network better protected from attacks from computers used by students, students can now download ONE copy of the Sophos anti-virus (SAV) software from HKU Portal (under the tab “Services” => under “Computer Centre Services” => “Download Sophos Anti-Virus”) and install it on a computer for work related to University studies during their stay at the University.

The use of the software is governed by the Sophos end-user license agreement at http://www.sophos.com/legal/eula.html.

An online guide on installation and use of SAV is available at http://www.itservices.hku.hk/faq/virus/sav-install.htm. After successful installation, you will see the icon “” at the right of your Windows task-bar.
