I think just scan memory and file system are ok.
It don't need to scan pop3 - smtp - ms office.

I like Symantec antivirus corporate edtion..v9
Small simply the best.

Symantec and small are two words I'd not expect to see in the same
sentence.

Symantec's corporate anti-virus products are entirely different from
their retail [Norton] anti-virus products. The corporate products have
a simpler UI and smaller total foot print.

I am testing the NOD32 beta now and it seems fine.

I just wonder why Symantec has the two product-lines? Maybe don't
appreciate the Norton Antivirus so much they would offer it to big
customers?

Nah... It's a different strikes for different folks thing. I suppose
you could bolt the central management features that enterprise
customers (read network administrators) need on to the retail
products... But why bother? Personally, It makes more sense to develop
a separate product that designed from the ground up to used in an
enterprise environment.

They have that thing running on the work machine once a week and it takes
2.50 hrs or more to complete the scan of the HD. It's too ridiculous how
long the scan runs. About 80% of the time I abort it.

I've got it installed on quite a few of my customers machines and it never
takes that long to run a scan. The only time I've seen anything like that
was when one of my customers decided to "help out" and installed it on a
workstation for me. They had it scanning _all_ of their drives, including
the mapped network drives. Needless to say, the file count got a bit high
on that scan and it did take quite a long time to complete. Once I reset it
to only do the local drives, the scan time dropped to around 7 minutes for
~50,000 files.

Although I didn't install it some summer intern did, I am pretty sure
it's on the local drive. However, I'll check it out, because it's too
ridiculous.
