[squid-users] Virus scanning on squid box.

Hello,

Does anyone have any experience or comments regarding using some sort of
virus scanning software in order to do real time virus scanning on http
traffic through a Squid box, Linux or Solaris.

In particular what kind of performance overhead this might create.

Or perhaps any other alternative arrangements that may provide a solution,
dedicated box perhaps?

Cheers for your thoughts,

Jezz Palmer.
