I hope MacroUnfree for servers works better than their 'doze 
workstation version.  I've had several vendors send macro viruses 
into my network and they got by some brand-new Gateways with 
McAfee 4.x with the latest sigs.  I nuked all the McAfee and replaced 
it with Norton, and keep the latest sigs in a directory on a server for 
users to download and install.  I haven't had a virus spread around 
my network since (knock on wood).

Cheers,
