[K12OSN] Antivirus program for Linux

[Michael Cortes]

I have been using Vexira MailArmor from Central Command 
http://www.centralcommand.com for about 3 weeks.

We are a windows district but have been using linux servers for several years.  
MailArmor has done a great job stopping virus attachments but does cost.  
(comparibly low cost and IMHO well worth it)
