I have a very small network set up at my house...one of the boxes is a
Win2000 Server. I've been using AVG (free version) for antivirus - but
support is going away at the end of January. Are there any other free
antivirus apps for Win2000 Server? Aside from that, I've been having
trouble finding Win2000 Server versions from the larger companies that
aren't for "Enterprise Networks".
Any suggestions for antivirus for a single server?
Thanks for your help!!

AVG 6 has gone away - AVG 7 is still free. But there's no way I'd run a free
desktop AV app on a production server (even if it would run, which I don't
believe the freebie AVG 7 will).
There are plenty of decent AV options for small offices - what's your actual
budget, apart from $0.00?

I'm just looking for a desktop equivalent package that runs on a
server. That said... somewhere in the neighborhood of $50.
Thanks.

How about $70? See http://www.grisoft.com/us/us_avg_fse.php
Since you've already used AVG and were apparently satisfied with it, this
might be a good fit for you.
