I am about to install a new antivirus program for my SBS 2003 Standard Edition R2 server.<br />
<br />
I am looking at NOD32 vs Sophos. I understand NOD32 has a new security suite. I tend to be skeptical about them as I already have a hardware firewall and not sure I want a software firewall unless they are on the clients. Also does it work with Exchange Server well as far as the Antispam program.

NOD32 Security Suitve vs Sophos

Anti-virus software was originally developed to detect and remove computer viruses. However, with the proliferation of other kinds of malware, antivirus software started to provide protection from other computer threats. In particular, modern antivirus software can protect from malicious browser helper objects (BHOs), browser hijackers, ransomware, keyloggers, backdoors, rootkits, trojan horses, worms, malicious layered service providers (LSPs), dialers, fraud tools, adware and spyware. Some products also include protection from other computer threats, such as infected and malicious URLs, spam, scam and phishing attacks, online identity theft (privacy), online banking attacks, social engineering techniques, Advanced Persistent Threat (APT), botnets and DDoS attacks.
