    I use Kaspersky (8.0.0.454) since 2006. I use this anti-virus because one of my friends recomended me for his exceptional performance and apparently had seen he's right. I am very satisfied by this anti-virus and I recommend to all of you

    I use NOD32 v2.7. It just works, and does it very fast.

    Avira . Low CPU and RAM requirements, great heuristics, daily updates, very good overall false/positive alarms ratio, very configurable and it won't flash apocalyptic pop ups to tell you that your system "Might be at risk!" just because you disabled a daily scheduled scan. It only shows a pop up to remind you to update it... and it is free!!.
    There are other AVs that will have a 2-3% less false alarms, and might detect 2-3% more viruses, but they require no less than twice the CPU and RAM that Avira needs.
    It does tend to make some noise about crypted and hevy compressed packers, but we can live with that!

    Free antivirus - Avira AntiVir

    It's been hard to find a good Antivirus lately, so I've been testing free avira in one PC and NOD32 3.x in the other, so far so good. Avira nags monthly I guess, with offers to upgrade to paid version. Nod32 on the other hand is very light and is the one that least gives me false positives. At least I hope they are false positives, because some AV tend to find everything that is crack/keygen related, as trojans/worms etc.
    it's hip to be square

    I was a Norton fan. Couple years ago, my pc was infected with a minor but irritating virus/trojan that Norton claims to be able to disinfect, but truth is Norton couldn't seem to be able to its job. I then was introduced to Kaspersky which has no issues disinfecting the pc.

    One year later ironically same virus/trojan. Again Norton still can't clean it with their "newer" version of AV, this time I manage to trace the infection and told Norton the steps to manually clean it, guess what? They ignore my advise and proofs I shown them and still claims their AV can successfully clean it.

    Enough is enough, after that I am sticking with Kaspersky.
