Chris didn't mention that he was talking about the AVG free edition.  We 
are running AVG on our servers and workstations.  It is really a great 
piece of antivirus software. 

I just didn't want people to get the idea that you couldn't use it in a 
networked environment or on servers.  The version for Exchange 2000 has 
worked great for us without taxing the life out of our Exchange server.

Thanks for the input,
Paul
