Dennis,
Have you tried a reload? Starting from the VirusScan 4.5 link on the
isovirus page leads to this page and section.
http://web.mit.edu/security/www/isovirus2.htm#install
Under the heading "download VirusScan for individual workstations", the
link seems to be working.
I'll talk to Jerry about having a table by platform. Unfortunately, the
virus protection product line is very confusing. Also, people do not want
to have too many explanatory links to follow before they reach the actual
download link. This sets up an information design conflict.
