    AVG is better than most of the paid ones. I have used it for years and never had any troubles. I used Norton for a while but went back to AVG because it slowed my computer down to much.

    Use Kaspersky FTW, It detects keyloggers and trojans before any other anti virus does..

    Norton is very good and so Yahoo is also using Norton for scanning attachment files. Yes that's right that Norton makes little bit slow your PCs if you've only 128MB RAM. For Norton Antivirus, you must need at least 256MB RAM to work smoothly. Since Norton is startup run program, so it's need few minutes to become stable when you start your PC. Anyway, I just like Norton because it has good Warm Protection. But be careful if you're using Norton 2005. Norton 2005 can't protect all kinds of virus if it's in a Pen Drive. I am telling this with my own experience. My friend had a Pen Drive which was infected with some virus. He was told me that his pen drive has some virus. But I putted his pen drive in my PC and scanned with Norton 2005. Norton was shown me some files are infected with virus and had successfully deleted from the pen drive. So, I removed the pen drive from my PC and when I opened My Computer, I got a message that my PC has virus. The virus was same with the pen drive virus. So, from that day, I just believe that Norton 2005 can't protect PCs from all viruses that come with Pen Drive.

    Definitely AVG. They just came out with version 8.0. The free one works fine.

    It doesn't appear to be the resource hog of Symantic either.

    Well I used the old AVG stuff but they made a new one now (8). It has the anti spyware integrated but I have the feeling that the anti spyware software is now less powerfull than the stand alone version used to be!
    Another, very good one, is Antivir!
