Hey,


We have installed Anti-Virus on 3 of our web servers (2 simple webservers
just serving pages and 1 as an admin/web server).


We have not encountered any real performance issues...

Mark,

Once get your anti-virus software installed and running on you web
server, would you mind sharing with the list what kind of performance
impact it creates. Are you planning to run scheduled system scans?

True it probably would show in the task or process lists, but if I were
to write a worm/Trojan, I would make it show up in the task list as
SVCHOST.exe, the generic name of a DLL process.

You see it in the task list. And if it does anything besides
being there (like trying to spread), you see that in your network
traffic.
