What are the bare minimum security configuration recommendations when using Windows Server to hosts websites

I am using Windows Server 2003 to host a few websites. I have the Windows Firewall enabled along with Remote Desktop and FTP. I am considering installing AVG Free for basic protection. Is this enough? Should i install anti virus on my production server?

Can anyone give any tips on bare minimum standard security setup?

+2  A: 

The Security Compliance Toolkit will probably help you out a lot in getting your security up to par.
