re: Network Sharing/College/Security Sunday, August 24, 2008 at 9:09 am Windows Vista Annoyances Discussion Forum Posted by quick69gto (850 messages posted) Leave the Network Discovery on but turn the rest off. Why the college IT department would want the anti-virus removed is beyond me. Have your daughter (better yet, you) talk to them about which anti-virus they prefer to be installed. If they prefer none be installed then insist on one no matter what lame excuse they give. It's not smart to use a PC without an anti-virus program no matter which network the PC is on. Disabling the firewall I can see. The college, more than likely, has a hardware firewall protecting the network.
