Virus Scan for my Windows Server 2003
I need to purchase Virus Scan for my Windows 2003 Server. I am looking for a version I can install in my server and when all of my users(10) log in, the software automatically check for virus. I am confuse of many products and can not make a decision for example between "corporate for 10 users" and "enterprise for 10 users". Thanks for your feedback.
Ulysses.

Not sure I understand exactly what you want but will answer anyway.
McAfee VirusScan Enterprise 7.1 works for me.

I have been researching the same jumbled mess that you have. My guess is, you're looking for the same thing as me. Virus Protection for the Server, the clients that access the server and possibly resources like your mail server. (Exchange perhaps)
If you are only looking for virus protection for your server itself, then you'll want to focus on the products with the fewest Client Licenses. (One)
Most of the virus programs I have seen that are either "corporate" or "enterprise" are just fancy names for how many Client Licenses they come with and what additonal server features they include. (which can be alot)
I'm looking for a 5 user solution that is either upgradable to 25, or something cost effective enough to allow me to buy the 25 user version. Here's where I'm at:
Symantec Small Business Corporate Edition: they have two versions, one with E-Mail Server protection, one without. 10 users with E-mail = $669 25 users = $1309 10 users without E-Mail = $439, 25 users = $849
McAfee has similar product lines and similar prices. "Total Virus Defense" and "Active Virus Defense" are the product lines to check out.
AVG at grisoft.com has some very competitive pricing for the same product line. You get 2 yrs vs 1yr service for essentially the same price. AVG has gotten excellent individual reviews but I don't know anything about their server products.
