We've implemented the following 2 products on a gateway box and had great
success blocking spam and viruses with them. I believe our all time record
for spam blocking was 4700 messages in a 24 hr period, and we've probably
gotten something like 20-30 inbound viruses/trojans/LookOut worms,
whatever. Both are highly effective and 100% free.
