Windows 2008 Server Antivirus

[Jhonwho]

I wonder which antivirus compatible with Windows Server (2003 or 2008) .. preferably free for money but I can say other information...

With 2003 already used the http://www.clamav.net/.
I am not sure whether to run in 2008, you can test it though.

I'm using Avira, but need to make a change in the registry to install Avira. After installing reverse change and is working now.

What changes are required to be done. Please tell me.

- Open regedit (Start> Run> 'regedit')
- Go to the key "HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Control\ProductOptions" and right-click on it (on the 'ProductOptions' in the left frame) and select' Permissions'.
- Click 'Add' and select a User with Administrator profile (preferably a User created especially for this task) and put on the list.
- Click on the User and the frame below, where the list of permissions, deny everything.
- Give and go on messages in the window, you can close the regedit and logoff.
- Log in to the User again and start the installation of the antivirus Avira!

This tip worked for me with Avira Personal Edition FREE both in windows 2003 server as the server in 2008!
