    Anti-Virus for Server 2003

    Hi Everyone,

    What Anti-Virus Software would you recommend to put on a M$ SBS 2003 Server thats running Exchange 2003 as well. I want something that will scan files as well as e-mails. Is there anything that does this??

    It's not big and it's not clever!!

    I'd go with F-Secure for sure. Either that or Kaspersky's

    Yes there are, but what type of environment are you in: how many seats, etc?
    Also, how much do you plan to spend?
    You may need a real PRO solution like Norton Corporate.
    Many of the network admins here can help with the best bet once you give a budget and scope.

    There will be about 15 workstations, and as per normal the powers from above are already moaning that the costs are sneaking up so I don't want to spend a fortune. no more than £400!

    F-Secure kicks a$$. http://www.f-secure.com/products/anti-virus/totalsuite/

    I'd run f-secure over norton and mcafee any day.

    I had a quick look on there web site and there was no mention of support for Server 2003??

    I'm running F-Secure on my web server (2003). When I bought it, it was F-Secure for Servers v5.41 and was compatible with 2003. Mine won't check email but there is a version that does scan exchange. You might want to verify that SBS is supported though. SBS has always been the basard son of servers

    Norton Corporate with Exchange filtering. Might be a bit past your budget but well worth it.
