Nortons 360.

Simple to use just set and forget, not a resource hogger either.

Free - then go Avira Personal edition. Avoid Comodo's antivirus just a piece of bugware, there firewall is okay but not the antivirus IMO.

The best program bar none is still NOD32 though, but this requires a subscription.

Free scanners work to a certain point.

You should never wonder why you got a vrius if you use free software,it does only part of the job.

I used both AVG and Avast,got two trojans that they didnt even see...and they both make mistakes by identifying applications as malware or other ware.According to Avast GTA4 has a worm,crazy...

I introduced the trojan on my laptop,which has ESET smart security..immediate recognition!

So i use ESET now,much lighter on the processes,very much running without you even knowing it.

A good scanner should update at least 4 times a day,the free ones dont even update twice a day..
