ITS News

Information Technology Services (ITS), through an agreement with Webroot Software, Inc., is making Spy Sweeper anti-spyware software available to the Vanderbilt community at no charge. Webroot is a top rated anti-spyware company. Several local technology support providers at Vanderbilt tested Spy Sweeper and recommended it to ITS as the best anti-spyware solution. Every Vanderbilt student, faculty member, and staff member with an active VUnetID can download and install Spy Sweeper. You can use it on any Vanderbilt or personal computer system, including home systems, running Microsoft Windows.

Because the ITS Helpdesk and Partner Support team do not have the system tools necessary to support Spy Sweeper, direct all support questions to Webroot at http://support.webroot.com/ 

Webroot’s support site includes an extensive list of Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs).
