We have the same set up: using a domain and SAM (and some group policies), but I never saw the benefit of using an antivirus when you are using a product like Deep Freeze. I looked at it as a way for less licensing for our AV (we use Trend Micro also), plus public PCs usually just pick up spyware/malware from the web and a product that wipes them out upon reboot like Deep Freeze or SteadyState is such a necessity. I have nothing but praise for DF and we are still using the standard edition that is many years old. I would like to upgrade to be able to administer it from a console, but that has always been a low priority.

Especially if you have your public machines on a domain and use any sort of PC access management system (We are using SAM.) We are currently running XP and using Trend Micro as our Anti-virus. We seem to be running into walls using our current solution and we're not getting the response we would like from the vendor. Any and all stories (again, good, bad and ugly) would be appreciated. ;-) Thanks much!
