<br>Andrew, it works a bit differently.<br>The SuperRoamNet doesn't detect anything.<br>They make u install the trojan-like app called Bradford Dissolvable Client,<br>that checks for the antiviruses that are on their list (ClamAV isn't on that list).<br>

</div>That the university is enforcing the use of a closed-source anti-virus even<br>
for Linux/Unix based systems and forcing end users to pay out for it if they<br>
want to actually use the university network?<br>
<br>
Seems quite simple for me.<br>
<br>
Does SuperRoamNet actually detect ClamAV? Or other open source and well<br>
respected anti-virus solutions for Linux?<br>

<br>
</div>No. How long until the university shutdown RoamNet? Ticking timeclock of yet<br>
more lock-in, not just for the systems used by the university but even their<br>
students.<br>
