Only you can answer this question.  How is your system used and what 
expertise do your users have? 

For example, take the scenario where a Windows user uploads a file 
that has a virus.  A couple of month's later another Windows user 
downloads the same file and infects his machine.  Will you know, for 
certain, that the cause of the second user's infection was the file 
that was downloaded or will it take another few months and another 
few users getting infected to figure out what's going on?
