I am note aware with specifics for MCAFEE, only make sure that you exclude Exchange binaries/processes and DBs from the scan.

Hi,<br />
<br />
We're migrating from Exchange 2003 to 2010 shortly and have been using Mcafee as our A/V provider since year dot. I was just after some tips/best practices about how to go around with the installation of the A/V onto this new setup. We're going to be running one server as the mail box roll and one server as the combined cas/hub transport server. <br />
<br />
We've previously had groupshield and 8.7 installed on the exchange 2003 server and found this to be effective. However with this change in setup I thought I'd enquire what others have used.<br />
<br />
Cheers &nbsp;

Tips for installing Mcafee A/V on Exchange 2010 Servers

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.
