Apart from Star Internet, of course. We have been scanning all email since November.
See our Stats page at http://academy.star.co.uk/public/virustats.htm for the current
top 10 email viruses.

Probably your current best bet. For safety, you should use more than one virus scanner
(we use three). Each month, we find that some scanners miss some viruses, and other
scanners miss others. Expect to take up to 10 times longer to process your mail than
before, and upgrade your hardware appropriately. Expect your helpdesk to be swamped
with calls about viruses and train them appropriately! If you don't catch 1 virus per
2000 emails, you are doing something wrong (or your clients are remarkably virus free!)
Good luck!
