Good SBS 2003 Anti-Virus Solution?

Hello All,

Looking for a good Anti-Virus Solution for SBS 2003 Standard. All clients
are XP Pro. New client has Norton AV 10.0 which expired and I'm looking at
other alternatives. I'm not a big Symantec fan anyway. Client does not use
Exchange or IIS.

Thanks for your input,

John

I use Trend CSM 3.6 which also covers Vista now. 30 day trial available at
Trendmicro.com

Frank knows I just uninstalled SAV. The workstations all uninstalled clean,
but the server was a bear. Once I got it clean, the install of Trend CSM and
20 workstations took about an hour :-). SWEET!.

On the way home now.

I don't have any experience with Trend but I have long like McAfee
Enterprise (note - the enterprise version is MUCH different from the
consumer version). In addition, I've had some training on Sophos which
left me with a good impression.

Symantec Corporate Edition 10.2 For Workstations and Servers - not the
same as Small Business Client and not the same as Norton anything. Very
easy on resources, good updates, doesn't break anything that I know of.
Managed from the server, good reports... Cheap.
