ABSTRACT:
A method and system is described for a wireless client computer to be connected via an access point to a network only if the wireless client computer has executed all requisite anti-virus programs. Where necessary, a signal from the access point notifies an anti-viral program server that an anti-virus needs to be immediately downloaded to the wireless client computer. An anti-virus fix is installed on the wireless client computer, and a full session is then initiated between the wireless client computer and a wireless network via the access point.
