Anti Virus for Exchange 2000

[OdedShafran]

Hi,

I'd like to know what is the most recommended Anti Virus for Exchange 2000. since im using Symantec's Exchange Filtering, i saw it is very memory comsuming.

so wanted to know if you had experience with another manufacturing of AV for XCH...

thanks

but keep in mind that EVERY Anti-Virus program will eat a lot of memory, but I must say that Symantec is one of the hungriest!

We have been using Sybari's Antigen product for almost 4 years now, and have been very happy with it.

I'll add a vote for Trend Micro, especially the NeatSuite package- includes AV for Exchange, NT/NetWare servers (ServerProtect), and Windows clients (OfficeScan).

Antigen, second to none.

We use Symantec Corporate on our mail server as well as our desktops, protecting about 300 mailboxes/desktops. No issues to speak of.

Thanks Marc. I should know by now to spell things out a bit better.

We use both the Enterprise Desktop/Server solution as well as Exchange option to protect our systems. Currently working on a way to safely roll this out to our clients outside of the network. It's easy to do, but finding difficulty in proving that updates were retrieved by each system.
