Nice product, VERY lightweight as far as system impact goes, highly clueful tech support: at a now-2-years-dead dotcom I worked for, it identified one of our custom Java applets as viral. With a code sample and a copy of the AV message, they had an updated definitions file to us in 4 hours. . . and pushed it out to the world as well.
I disagree. I used Sophos over 2 years and I had some problems. It didn't find viruses sometimes although I made upgrades.I also used it with amavis and qmail and it sometimes crashed my MTA . Best wishes,
