Interestingly I've found their engine: http://www.grisoft.com/html/us_techn.html Works pretty well. I know of at least one site that had unpatched IIS that had the Nimda worm blocked (in it's Email-attachment form) by AVG before any updates really hit... But I'll agree that you generally do get what you pay for... I run Computer Associates InoculateIT product, and although the do come out with frequent updates, it still wasn't aware of Nimda for almost a day.
