Before you download

Some Schools and Centers manage Symantec's Windows updates via their own network servers. That is, the School or Center will control, monitor, and update the virus updates on your machine from their network server. Faculty and staff should speak with their Local Support Provider (LSP) to determine how their virus updates will be managed.
The software available from this page is configured so that virus update files are managed directly from Symantec's web site. With the exception of faculty and staff, this configuration should suffice for most users.

Download and setup instructions

Step 1 - Remove existing antivirus software
If you already have antivirus software installed on your computer, such as VirusScan for Windows, you should remove it before installing Symantec's antivirus products. Windows users must also remove earlier versions of Symantec AntiVirus or Symantec Endpoint Protection, before installing Symantec Endpoint Protection 12.1.6.
Step 2 - Download antivirus software
Symantec's antivirus products are available for download using your PennKey and password. Before the software will download to your machine, you will need to agree to the licensing agreement.
