Do your macintosh users not share files and emails with your PC users?  
 
<<soapbox mode engaged>>  I have been supporting a multi-platform environment 
for 15+ years.  We have been running AV on our Macs for the last 10.  Not only 
do Macs get exposed to viruses that they can be infected with, they are 
carriers for PC viruses.  IMO it is irresponsible to have them on your internal 
network and not protected.  Defense in depth - social responsibility.<<soapbox

SOPHOS is a great multi-platform product that is managed on Windows servers.  
Small client footprint and easy to manage from an enterprise perspective.

Haven't the Mac users in your network told you?  Mac's don't get malware of any 
type.
 
Seriously that was what I keep getting told, so we don't buy any malware 
protection for them, but I think Symantec, MacAffe., and others of the big 
names might have some.

        Since there are a number of folks apparently running Macs in their 
networks, I was wondering what everybody is using to protect them from Malware. 
 Are some products better, easier to manage smaller footprint than others?

         

        Thanks for any insight.
