    At my site, we have a 100 user licence for Sophos AV,
    and it supports Windows, Mac OS 8+ and OS X, and various unix
    flavours including both FreeBSD 3.x and FreeBSD 4.x

    In FreeBSD I use the sophos "sweep" on demand scanner to scan incomming
    mail attachments before delivering them to user mail boxes. Desktop
    users have the on-access scanner running all the time in their MS
    Windows and/or Mac OSX environments.

    We use Sophos on the Unix server cause I think it's the best fit for our
    organisation as a whole (especially the Windows desktop & file server
    which is what the majority of machines run... though not the majority
    of our servers).

    Hope this helps.
