RE: blocking exe, vbf and others

I'd like to know if this virus scanner also protects the whole server
itself. Or is it just made especially for exchange? What if we're using a
different mail server (like SBC)?  Please discuss the limitations and more
advantages of the product aside from what was mentioned in the email of Mr.
Overfield re: this matter.

Have A Nice Day!

        We use GrpShld as well, an excellent product, seamless updates,
highly
        configurable, excellent logging and notification.....I would
recommend
        enabling heuristic scanning, as it catches nearly all virii even
before
        updated or emergency DAT files are released by NAI, and has saved me
more
        than a few times (nimda being one example....GrpShld heuristic
scanning
        identified it as "New Back Door" and stopped about 50 infected
emails from
        being delivered to user mailboxes, I was out of state at a
conference at the
        time, and didn't get around to checking my email until 7 in the
        evening).....IMHO, NAI products are vastly superior to Symantec or
any other
        products..
