I tried the Clam AV less than 1 year ago and it seemed to use more resources
than the F-Prot. However, since my original post asking about this I
discussed with Declude support and they helped me with trouble shooting the
high CPU. By increasing threads in declude.cfg and turning on AVAFTERJM and
PRESCAN in my virus.cfg went a long way. Thanks for reply.

How long ago did you try the Clan AV?  I know they released a newer version
a while back that was supposed to run more efficiently under windows and
reduce resource utilization.  

I am old school about AV, I think multiple virus scanners are a must.  But
then I have run multiple scanners for years and I always find virus detected
by the second scanner that shouldn't have gotten past the first.  Its kind
of enlightening when you think you are covered and then you add a second
scanner and see its catch things that should be there.

We have been using F-Prot for several years with great success. Their new
mail server licensing change is too expensive. We tried the free Clam AV,
but with heavy volume CPU was reaching 100%. I know Declude has built-in
Virus Scanner, but we have always run F-Prot in addition. It seems necessary
for extra protection, but perhaps now overkill? What are others using or
recommend?  What is best Virus scanner to keep the CPU cycles reasonable? We
are running IMail 8.22, Declude 4.X, Message Sniffer, and invURI. Thanks.
