Is this an advertisement for Sophos?

Given that it’s hosted on sophos.com, I would imagine so.

Doesn’t mean you should ignore it, though.

Sophos may be advertising capabilities but for something like this I’ll take information about it from any just about anywhere.

FWIW, Sophos is one of the better AV solutions out there. For years, they had the only reliable AV solution for Novell Networks, where McAfee and Symantec would regularly crash Novell servers.

Sophos also has a FREE AV solution for Macs (personal use).

You know, I’m beginning to suspect that there are two sides to most computer security software firms; one side writes the problem software and the other writes the debugging software. Or maybe there are cooperative quid pro quo agreements between competing firms.

It would be the perfect business model: create the problem, release it, then solve it...for a price.
