I'm certain we're the only anti-virus vendor to have staked our corporate Internet presence on FreeBSD. FreeBSD ran beautifully even during the load spike generated by the LoveLetter virus. FWIW, we're working on a sendmail plug-in version of our main scanning tool "sweep". At the moment, under unix, only amavis and qmail provide any mechanism for e-mail scanning with our scanner. Under NT, there are a number of third party tools that utilize our virus scanning engine (SAVI). see http://www.sophos.com for more details.
