    NOD 32
    Faster
    Safer

    But not made for higher security
    it can be used at home

    Rank wise recommendations....

    1 ) BitDefender
    2) Kaspersky
    3) NoD32
    .....On your PC's configuration....I suppose NOD32 would be fine!

    I recommend AVG as well. Doesn't requite huge system resources to run it. It's free too.

    Another vote for AVG.

    AVG and windows firewall combination has done well for me.

    Avast is OK, I also recommend XoftSpy. That is what I use and it works wonderfully.

    Avira is my favorite. It's one of the best when it comes to virus detection. I would also recommend Ad Aware, for an anti spyware program, since most likely this is what causes you problems.

    Avast is good, free, and not Norton. Try it out :)
