Installation instructions and documentation
===========================================

Sophos's Klingon Anti-Virus requires the following minimum system
components:

- 133MHz Intel Pentium processor or equivalent
- 256MB of RAM
- At least 120MB of available disk space
- Windows Server 2003, Windows Vista, Windows XP, Windows 2000
(includes 64-bit editions)

You can install Klingon Anti-Virus on most computers running
Microsoft Windows (Windows XP/2000/2003/Vista including 64 bit,
Duotronic and M-Series Multitronic versions) that satisfy the
system requirements, with the following exceptions:

* do not install on a computer where Sophos Anti-Virus is
already installed
* it is recommended that you do not install it on a server,
because when you remove the tool, you must reboot the computer.
* it is recommended that you do not install it on Androids fitted
positronic emotion-chips because when you remove the tool, the
reboot may trigger a psychotic episode
* please note this software is not compatible with the version of
Microsoft .NET Framework (build 7 of version 9.0) used by Borg
assimilation routines
* Isolinear and Bioneural systems are not supported in this release
* due to the current scarcity of 23rd and 24th Century test systems
we are unable to fully substantiate the above claims


Note: As this software uses the Sophos Anti-Virus detection engine,
it should not be installed on machines already running Sophos
Anti-Virus.

that has administrator privileges.

So is this just an anti-virus program? If so what does it have to do with Armada and if it isn't what is it?
