Best practice for security always involves defence in depth. Basing
all your protection on a single AV product, given that *none* of them
are 100% effective, would be short sighted (and particularly given the
current spate of attacks on AV products).
Personally, I use clamav as the first line of defence. It's rare for
anything to slip through, but it happens (well, twice so far - and in
each case by the time I reviewed the situation a signature had already
been released).
