I would recommend using hosted Anti-spam and Anti-virus solution. We have been using free solutions on our old Linux server but since we have switched to a hosted (paid) solution it actually cutted down our support expenses on AV and AS. Plus, my users are now much more happy with almost no spam.
There are many such solutions available for about a $1 per mailbox per month. We are using Google Postini.

Dear liorkr,
I don't get the point, how anti-spam updates aren't automatic?
After installing Edge Server, do I have to do the Manual update always?
After installing Edge Server, do I have to make a specific configuration to enable Anti-spam?

Anti-spam filters on Exchange are updated as part of Windows Updates. If you configure an automatic installation of Windows Update (I don’t recommend that for a server) they will be updated automatically.
Let’s not forget that Microsoft has another paid anti-spam/anti-virus solution for Exchange.
