>Our company has about 100 computers distributed throughout North America. They run automated routines 24/7, with no human intervention except maintenence. We've been using Symantec Antivirus, but that's getting expensive. While Symantec has good prices for 100 systems in one location, but they have NO group pricing for distributed systems like ours. That means we have to pay full retain for renewals, and that's too pricey for us.

Both AVG and (I think it was) Avast have free versions; I use AVG at home. However, the free license is restricted "for personal use"; you might check whether the prices for your purposes are reasonable.
I don't know of any antivirus that offers its product free for commercial use.
