Hello All,I am new to windows server 2008.Is there any virus protection built into the server?If not Any recommendations fora good inexpensive virus protection program?Best Regards

hi there,There is no built in AV present in any of the microsoft operating systems.you can select eithera) Norton antivirus b) Symantec AVc) MCafee AV It again depends on per user basis or enterprise basis they have their own licensing terms which you need to check by navigating to their respective websites.sainath Windows Driver Development

Thaks for the reply.I think what I'll do is run my existing xp pro as a guest under Hyper-V. This way I can get all my e-mails and do web surfing from there with the installed anti-virus package I have under xp pro. The server version of Anti_Virus software is way too expensive......Best Regards
