There are other solutions to prevent that your network stays vulnerable when yo have no time to patch. We developed an Intrusion Prevention System called AccessGuard (www.accessguard.nl). This product is placed in front of the network, and can detect and block intrusions from hackers and worms before they enter the network. The AccessGuard detected and blocked the first Blaster worm on the network of on of our customers in the early morning of the 9th of August. That was before the 'major alarms'. None of our customers is infected by this worm, and we had the same thing with other worms like Code Red, Nimda and Slammer.
