On the related topic of virus, Severe Acute Respiratory Syndrome (SARS) has struck more fear for people in South East Asia. It has spreaded to many parts of the globe. You may find out more at World Health Organization (WHO). I'm not trying to spread fear, but so far there's no treatment for it, and the infectious agent hasn't been found yet.

Yes, network admins can protect their network with some brand name antivirus software. But I still believe the main line of defense still lies in educating the users. You can protect your network from email virus, but users can still bring in virus using floppies. I have engineers who love to click on anything they see. Even it has dead give away virus email header. These people don't care. If the network is down, great that's the network admin's problem. They don't realize want the cause is to the company.
I recommend that companies should setup strong disciplinary actions for those users. Their behavior not only shows their irresponsibilites toward network usage, but also displays traits of bad professionalism in handling other work related projects.
