Just to be clear here. By bells and whistles I mean the integrated firewall, anti-spam, anti-phishing, anti-instant message, anti-kitchen sink, you find in the consumer package. Just eats client resources and duplicates what is already available.
Quote from: Strat If the Internet was the only source of malware I might agree.
Norton / Symantec Corporate is OK. I just completed a SAV upgrade project on 300 clients. About 10% failed miserably and had to be hacked out manually prior to re-install.

Agreed there mssystems. I usually install little more than the A/V component on clients as the rest is taken care of by the server.

You don't say if you use exchange for email?
If so I would recommend trend micro client/server messaging suite. It is centrally managed on the server and clients installs are easy and the client systems automatically update from the server, with the server automatically updating from trend.
It has a whole host of features like A/V, anti-spam, firewall, spyware detection etc all configurable from the server for each client and can protect outlook and the exchange server.
I would never recommend any of the Symantec solutions as I have had all sorts of problems on many client sites. The Symantec products appear to work fine for a while but then start to cause all sorts of strange problems making things unreliable. The solution has always been to replace it with trend.

May I reinforce Strat's comment "...if the Internet was the only source of malware I might agree"
Think USB sticks, think diskettes (if you still have diskete drives) on your client PCs.
Locking the perimeter is fine is there is no other way for malware to enter.
But even if you have cast iron control over client configurations, think guest PCs which are temporarily plugged into your LAN: are your group policies - if you use ADS - robust enough to prevent malware transmission over the LAN?
