    AVG in Windows along with zonealarm to keep out worms, but only at work and on my test PC at home. At home I use Linux 99.9% of the time, so keeping the system and applications up-to-date, common sense and a good firewall keeps me safe. :)

    hmmm I was already going to get AVG, before i saw your post.

    Well, I don't have any problem for my antivirus if it's really good, but I don't want to instal some slow crap that will tell me every 5 minutes that I have lots of viruses and it can't do anything about it :eek:

    So basicly I'm looking for the best comersial solution..
    ok, I'll probably go for mcafee or kaspersky..

    I use AVG because the price is right.

    For email, all messages which contain executible attachments are auto-destroyed before they arrive in my mail box. And, I only view email as plain text. I never open attachments unless I am expecting them.

    For downloads, I scan before running. I do not download from warez sites. I do not download via chat. I do not let people load stuff on my computer.
