Well my first choice is Norton (by Symantec) because it is one of the
best virus scanners you can get, but we also have installed Innoculan
by Cheynne.  The good thing about Innoculan is it works with their
Arcserve product.  If you have a modem attached to the server it will
retrieve it's own updates with no intervention.  Innoculan claims to
find 100% of all known viri.  

The decision between NLM based and workstation based is usually
dependant on cost.  If you have to buy licenses for 25 workstations
the NLM version is less expensive.  For a 5 or 10 workstation lan you
may want to just buy a exe ver for each ws.
