    What happens when a virus is detected and Forefront Client Security doesn't have the updated signature for that infection?
    Does it go into Quarantine?
    (Specifically for AntiMalware)

    Hi,

    forefront relies for the most part on it's av signature set like any other av software available. what actions can or will be done relies for the most part in what kind of malware is detected. If heuristics detections detected the file as malware it will try to quarantine it.
