The answer is simple, simply have one system (pref the fastest system available) be the virus scanner, then put every computer on the same workgroup, create shares of all drives then map the drives as letter drives on the computer that is the virus scanner, then scan away.
There's no easy way to do that. Going to every single computer and starting a manual scan isn't an option because it's time consuming and you can't be sure if every single computer has an antivirus that's updated with the latest virus definitions. Creating shares isn't a viable option either because, depending on the size of your network, it might take several days before the computer finishes scanning all the shares.

The solution is to adopt a client/server antivirus solution (Symantec is a good choice). All you have to do is install the server and configure it to get the latest updates automatically. But that's an easy task. After that, from the server console you can push the clients to every computer in the network. In other words, the server acts like a remote install server which installs the antiviruis clients on each computer you specify. So let the server do the work for you. After he infrastructure is ready you can go ahead and create groups, update plans, security warnings and so on. besides the obvios advantages (the server will push updates to the clients so on every computer the virus definitions will be up to date) you also have the posibility of remotely starting scans, you'll get notifications when a virus was found on one of the computers and so on.
