We are currently using Antigen Anti-virus software on all of our Exchange servers. We 
have not used any other anti-virus software to protect the server or operating system 
itself. Three years ago when the Exchange systems were being installed it was known 
that file scanning anti-virus software could or would corrupt information store files 
and perhaps log files as well. The architect recommended that no anti-virus software 
be installed at that time. Desktops and other servers are protected with file scanning 
anti-virus software which is updated nightly. We have been asked / directed to install 
server file scanning software (NAI) on our Exchange servers. This weekend I have been 
running it in the lab on an Exchange server and have excluded the partition with the 
information store and the partition with the log files. Can you tell me what the 
consensus is on this issue and do you run server anti-virus software along with 
Exchange aware anti-virus software. Thanks.
