Not iron bars :-D  , looking to place AV in router which will have 
application proxies.

> How much traffic are you talking about?
I will go with high end processor based on requirement. If the AV 
product depends on the traffic level, pls suggest for SOHO and 
enterprise level.

Email, HTTP traffic as of now

> Is speed or accuracy more important to you?
Planning to get two types: one with high speed and other with high 
accuracy , but in both case I dont want false positives

> How much money do

Not yet decided ;)

> How often do you expect to get signature updates?
I wish the AV should update its signature base as soon as a new virus is 
found. AV vendor should be active.

Automatic update fecility is what I look for.
