Yes. As long as you exclude the Exchange and the Antigen folders, you
should be ok.

Subject: anti-virus protection for Exchange server os
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.
