We dumped Norton Antivirus for Firewalls a year ago because I found it 
would pass every virus that was sent with binhex encoding (I always keep 
meaning to write to bugtraq on that).  Currently we use TrendMicro's 
product and seems to work fine.  I even set it to stop the KakWorm virus 
which is in the body of the email.
