Dear all, We use Symantec antivirus (corporate edition 10.1). An excellent choice to scan files and mail. Might consume ressources on files servers with lots of file changes but all considered works fine in CTX environments (we have roughly 50 of them). The foot print is acceptable, the client can be installed managed or unmanaged though we use managed, with one server for central scheduling/updating and reporting. Never needed any support, in the past was a bit nasty in upgrade processes ( from Norton 7 to 8,), but thiere supportpages kind of reports the best way to proceed in case of issues. There are nowadays also good removal tools so modifying the registry is more or less a thing of the past. Never used any other tool, but for me on a scale of ease of use and management overhead scores pretty well.

Hi all, I've asked this before... but can anyone recommend the "best" AV both for Citrix and "the rest of the enterprise". i.e.: low footprint, simplicity to manage etc. We're currently with F-Secure, licensed by user - so we can have clients installed on as many servers & workstations as necessary. We've found F-Secure to be quite "sluggish" and memory hungry and are looking at alternatives. I'm currently testing Kaspersky, which I've heard good things about, and so far it's running OK - but I'd like to know recommendations on the "best" solution from the community. Any help gratefully received, as ever. Cheers.
