Hi i want to install antivirus on windows server. i was wondering if someone can point me to the steps i need to take or any links which might be helpful. thanks

Hello, That depends of your antivirus product / version. So, I would recommend that you contact its developer technical support for assistance or to get the needed documents. If you want to install Forefront Client Security, refer to that: http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/bb432630.aspx This posting is provided "AS IS" with no warranties or guarantees , and confers no rights.

What kind of Windows Server will this be? There are different Windows Server anti-virus packages available. Theres ForeFront Security for almost every product suite Microsoft has.... http://www.microsoft.com/en-us/server-cloud/forefront/default.aspx Sharepoint, Exchange, Lync, Unified Communications Server, Threat Management Gateway (Formerly ISA), Server Management Console. There's also 3rd party AV Products like Vipre Business/Enterprise AV, CA Enterprise AV, Symanetc Enterprise AV, Trend Micro WFBS, Trend Micro Enterprise, Checkpoint Enterprise AV, and theres a few more out there but you get the point. You could start with Google to find the rest of these and figure out what works and deploys best in your network environment.

Im going to be installing Trend anti-virus on WSUS server If you are planning to install Trendmicro AV client on WSUS server, I don't think there would be any problems.
