    Slightly OT here.

    In corporate land, where does everyone have AV installed? Currently, we
    have desktop, NT servers, and email gateway. I am thinking that we need
    http/ftp scanning via ICAP from our proxy, but Gartner[1] says http/ftp
    scanning is uneeded. I don't know if I agree.. -OR- Are people installing
    malicious code detection software, like www.finjan.com??

    Also, anyone have any experiance with Garner regarding security items? This
    AV answer, joined with their latest magic quad. for firewalls and ids is
    just plain scary. I don't know if I even want to put an ounce of faith in
    them anymore.

    Thanks,
    -jkeeton

    [1] At my employ Gartner is god.
