What is it you want to scan on the proxy? I don't see the use of a scanner on a proxy myself. Files which you download can not be scanned until they are downloaded completely and then they are on the client allready anyway. As for HTML/Javascript threads, I don't know how much you encounter them, but I hardly do.
For me, the neccesary anti-viurs places are, the mail gateway and the clients.

Not I am asking for technical support, but only want to know if you think an antivirus should be installed on the Proxy or just on the clients. I need arguments to convince my boss to keep the proxy as light as possible =) Cheers, -------------------------------------------- Antonio López Mercader Departamento de Informática Hospital San Jorge - Huesca (SPAIN) --------------------------------------------
