Sorry to be blunt but I have never seen Anti-Virus software be useful except in the case of users who install everything they see on the Internet and in that case it didn't really help either.

And you think that this would work with non IT users in an office or at home? Whilst you may be able to train your users to not randomly click on anything that gets sent to them, you can't do much about the security flaws in their browser or email client.

If you're just against spending money on it then use MSE.
