We use McAfee as well, 8.7 patch 4, with no issues, running Xenapp 6 hyper-v environment.
We're currently having McAfee issues, with this bug in patch 5: https://kc.mcafee.com/corporate/index?page=content&id=KB72280 It seems to disproportionately effect XenApp servers (at least in the server estate I look after). Unfortunately, downgrading to patch 4 leaves these servers exposed to this bug: https://kc.mcafee.com/corporate/index?page=content&id=KB70384 And the hotfix contains the same bug as patch 5. I'd definitely check that the bug with patch 5 has been resolved before deploying VirusScan 8.7 to any XenApp servers. The fix is due this week (although it was originally due last week). We also have some Citrix/XenApp servers running Trend Micro - and we've not yet had any major problems with that. I also like Sophos, but I've never used it in a Xen terminal services environment.
