Do you remember Nimda worm? It was probably first worm to exploit Outlook Express vulnerability to launch itself automatically. On Windows NT 4.0 F-Secure engine (well, it was few years ago, I don't remember version) had a problem - it catch this worm _after_ it was executed. And worm successfully spreads from protected machine approx. in ~50% of cases...
Yes, remember Nimda quite well, we made a lot of money over a couple of weeks cleaning up operations using Norton Enterprise. However, we had around 80 boxes in the DMZ with full Internet public ip's protected with F-Secure and none got it.
