If you need to install Sophos on server 2003 you need extended licence exclusive for 2003 server

If you have this please call to support Sophos directly.

Hello Pierre-Marie Lombaerts , 
 I'm afraid, Server 2003 is no longer a supported Windows platform .

Hi, 
 To use the thin installer on 2003 machines you need to make sure that the server has installed patches related to SHA256 support. Otherwise you might be able to use the old installer; i'll send you a PM.
