Anti-virus, anti-spam all in one solution for SBS/Exchange 2003

Hey Experts!!!

Just wanting to get general opinions since I couldn't find much on here.  On our old server we had Symantec for anti-virus, however no spam filtering software was present.  
I downloaded the trial for GFI mail program to control the anti-spam and found it to be awesome.  However, is there an all in one type solution that would work just as well?  I am not going back to Symantec for anti-virus, so I am wondering what everyone is using.  

What we have:
- 11 PCs
- 1 Server
- 11 Mailboxes
Anti-Virus AppsExchangeAntiSpam

I do like AVG and use it myself (free personal level) and it's been great.  However, I am not seeing anything for anti-spam filtering through Exchange.  Would I be better off going with AVG anit-virus and then GFI for spam on exchange?

We use Symantec Endpoint in house and let a third Party Filter our mail using a MailFoundry Appliance.

Look up www.ancarb.co.uk, the product is better than GFI in my experience and is cheaper!

There are no Kapersky fans here?  It looks like they had a pretty strong software suite with everything I wanted, however when I look at their individual components they say that are included with the suite there is no anti-spam protection.
It does look like AVG is the one though!
 
Thanks Experts!!
