Sophos' product is ridiculously over-priced, unless you are a large 
business interested in a site license.

The choices of anti-viral software for OS X:

Virex 7

Note that Apple includes a copy of Virex with its $99/year ".Mac" service:

Norton Anti-Virus

Sophos Anti-Virus

and

Intego Virus Barrier X
<http://www.intego.com/virusbarrier/home.html>
This product, in my opinion, is the premier anti-viral software product 
for OS X.
