Not here, but I've been eyeing up the IronPort product.  Not only does it use the McAfee scan engine but you can also 
include the WebRoot anti-malware scanning engine as well.  I've found Fortinet to have diminished into another 'me too' 
product when it comes to AV scanning.  There are better out there.

A quick update on our search... We are discussing the Mcafee Secure Internet Gateway 3300 and 3400 with a vendor. The 
3300 specifications seems only marginally better than the Fortigate 3016. I would lean towards the 3400 even though it 
would require two appliances at a fairly hefty price.

Does anyone have experience with the Mcafee SIGs?

Thanks,
Doug
