As BitDefender Business Line Manager Mircea Mitu declared, "The bottom line is that all BitDefender users should upgrade their products to latest available version. Now! Moreover, if you haven't yet considered migrating to BitDefender for Linux Mail Servers, there’s a dozen of good reasons for doing that..." (http://www.bitdefender.com/bd/site/upgrade_linux.php)

At same time with launch of new products, two discussion lists for BitDefender products on Unix and Unix-like platforms were initiated, in order to bring together all BitDefender users and to provide an online community for CIOs and security professionals who have to defend their network infrastructure and protect corporate communication flows against spam, viruses and other malware.

All these new antivirus and antispam mail filtering products from BitDefender are available now on BitDefender website (www.bitdefender.com) for a full 30 days evaluation. Local BitDefender partners may be contacted in order to get a quotation for BitDefender security solutions for corporate network.

BitDefender(tm) Antivirus is certified by all the major independent reviewers in the antivirus field - ICSA Labs, CheckMark and Virus Bulletin.

SimpleMachines also has a great bridge that allows you to easily integrate it into Mambo, (another of my new favorite applications!), and LunaByte is expected to release a full front end portal for SMF within next few weeks. But honestly, you might not even NEED Mambo or LunaByte to create your own protal. SMF provides very easy to use SSI functionality so you can create your OWN customized front end portal for it. In addition it already has a built in calendar, (a feature about 3/4 of our website design customers ask for).

The incredible list of features being built in to SimpleMachines is too lengthy to list here. If you are interested you can see feature list on AlphaOne Technology Web Hosting & Design or on SimpleMachines Website. Even if you are not currently in market for a community forum and MORE software, keep an eye on SMF - its developers are definitely forward thinking and have worked hard to develop streamlined code that doesn't tax your system resources way many similar, (but lesser!), applications do.

AlphaOne Technology will install and configure SimpleMachines FREE of charge with purchase of any web hosting plan.
