IDS/Virus Detection
Is there any software that I can run on my NAT firewall to detect local clients with viruses/worms? I know Cisco has a commercial product used by my school, but I was wondering if there were any programs that can do analysis of the traffic through the firewall. I'm not sure if ACID has this capability or not, but I have been looking into this.

you can also scan the traffic going through the gateway to stop viruses from getting into the local network with something like viralator, for example:
