Walter, that is an assumption which can negatively affect you, your clients, and Internet users in general. Not running an AV program (which now usually also includes anti-trojan and anti-spyware facilities) is not a smart thing to do. There really is no excuse for it since many such tools are free and with todays cpu's and hdd sizes they are no longer a resource hog per se.
