I use Trend Micro's ScanMail for Exchange.  I'm happy with it so far.

Little different then the usual AV product of choose question, I'm looking
for Exchange specific recommendations. 

I'm  using Symantec Mail Security 4.5 and it's starting to give me problems
that appear to be load related.  My servers have plenty of power, but I
think the AV engine is choking on the massive influx of mass mailing worm
e-mails I've gotten recently.  I see 2-5k a day now and it's causing
services to crash.  When they restart, they don't work.


I've tested products about 8 months back, but need new recommendations.  I
remember liking AntiGen (Expensive) and Trend, but not liking McAffee
because the UI was non-intuitive and slow (java).
