Presently I m not using any AV on my Domino server bcoz i m getting service from my ISP which block few virus prone file extensions (like .exe,*.pif, *.vbs )before it reaches my server and moreover i have installed Norton AV on each client machines with specific Lotus Notes Proctection enabled.so far not receiving any virus complaints for the last whole year.
Symantec started new Antivirus product stated in subject , just wondering to get hold of it it fruitful or not , or its safe to continue with current setup. any one have experience of it any comments?
thanks in advance

Subject: Symantec Antivirus/Filtering 3.1 for Domino
We use this product (3.0) and it works well for us. I do not trust just having the users AV product protecting the network, especially if there is a virus outbreak. It is best to catch and control these situations at the server.

The ‘filtering’ component can be configured to block certain e-mails (e.g. larger than a set size, containing certain words, etc.). Certain file extensions are one of the things it can block.
