Anti Virus Software Used on Microsoft's Own Servers

Hi, A month or two ago I read a post somewhere denegrating most antivirus software such as Kasperski and Norton, and instead recommending a product , whose name I don't remember because it seemed to be just four or five random letters that didn't form a word, that the poster claimed was what Microsoft itself used to protect their own servers.

I went to a site that compared this product to the others and it did score 100% in their test. (Kasperski was a close second.) My question is, does anyone know the name of this antivirus product? Thanks, Mike
