best antivirus, antimalware and speedup software for a LAN

Hello Experts,
We have a small business with 7 (win7) stations and a server (Windows small business server 2011 essentials)
Last two months we had huge problems with viruses and made us reinstall all stations
Now we are looking for the best software to protect our equipment and data.

What is the best antivirus software for a server? and for a station?
also the top software for antimalware and a good speed up software ?

Is there any particular combination and configuration you would suggest ?

Our apps are developed in visual studio visual basic and we need to use only government websites.

regards,

Rob

McAfee with ePolicy orchestrator is what I've used most recently for both virus and malware protection. Has an enormous configurable system and good technical support. Well documented online and very good at detecting outbreaks.

Another vote for Webroot, as QuinnDex said above.
