If you can avoid using anti-virus, then definitely it isn't needed.
I used to think the same way as you, until one day I discovered that one of
our servers had open shares. That was pretty ugly.
It turns out that some developers had created the Citrix server to run their
app, and decided that these shares were needed to make the app work
correctly.
(Quick side not: The server was built before I started)
Sure wish that I had anti-virus on that server.

In that situation, it is best not to have the Anti-virus software on the
Terminal server. We use a server that screens e-mail before the client
gets it (Trend Micro Norman Anti-virus). Each client (we use fat
clients) has Norton Anti-virus. No Anti-virus software on the Terminal
server. Of course we do not have outside access to our Terminal server
though.
Hope this helps
