I'm sure groupshield is OK.
But IMHO Trend runs circles around it.

We recently bought the new version of McAffee which comes with
groupshield 4.5. We are running Exchange 2000 and I was told
Groupshield was so bad it would be better to spend the money and get
scanmail. So we are testing scan mail but have not bought it yet.
Have you found groupshield to be ok? Is there a new version 5 for Ex
2000?
Appreciate the feedback
Nathan

If you are talking about having NetShield and Groupshield on the same
box, don't!!! I have only seen trouble with that combination. GSE should
be all that you need. You shouldn't be using the Exchange box for user
shares anyway.
That having been said, Robert is correct :)

Dear Steven,
Wawa uses NAI for both NetShield and GroupShield.
To get to your issue, we have set up exclusions in NetShield
Any drive letter:\exchsrvr\
and subfolders
This works fine for us.

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.
