We have been running Trend over a long period and are fairly happy with
that.
i would ofcourse also reccomend that you run a seperate viruswall in
front of your exchange to take the heaviest load...

        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).
