Many businesses relay solely on "free" antivirus software and believe this provides sufficient protection. There's an old saying that "you get what you pay for". If you pay nothing for your antivirus software, don't expect it to do a lot more than nothing.
Free antivirus software is free for a reason, and the reason is that it operates reactively ... telling you that you've got a virus after you're infected. What you should consider is threat management software, and a plan for what to do if a worm ever slips through the cracks.
Threat Management software does more than scan for viruses and worms ... it looks for threatening behavior, and stops any malicious behavior before any damage can be done. Even if it has not detected a virus or worm infection.
All of my clients with threat management software were fully protected from the recent worm threats. And the cost of this protection? About $10 per PC per year!
