u can consider avast free antivirus too. for browser, u can also give opera a try first, it is quite good, coz it is fast and smooth.

AVG and PC-Cillin shouldn't even be in the list. My vote goes to ESET NOD32.

well, there's no such thing the BEST.....

just grab any AV.... combine with any AS..... any Firewall..... and something like WinPatrol..... and most important, your KNOWLEDGE and AWARENESS.....

lastly, you must know wat u r doin.....

eg me,

i have AVG + SPYBOT S&D + WinPatrol.... when you install something, there will be pop out, you must know wat u r doin to allow or disable the processes / anything that been change to your computer... and so on.....

just my 2 cent

Agreed! Winpatrol is one of HIPS application (Host-Intruder Prevention System). Similar to IDS on kaspersky and a-squared antimalware, but with better protection. But for beginner @ intermediate computer user, I don't recommend this. It's quite annoying when you don't know what the popup is all about...

For free antivirus i would recommend avira. Otherwise, kaspersky is the best! Serve me well for the last 4 years!

yeah..he missed a lot.
Panda,NOD32,Avast!,Bitdefender

i vote for Kaspersky.
have been using KAV 2007 for almost 2 yrs,
and never give me problems.virus detection good and no laggy at all(compared to previous version of Kaspersky)
bfore i use Kasperky,i use NOD32...at first 5 months it does good but after a year using,it sucks.
virus detection of NOD32 is very weak compared to Kasperky.but i notice that NOD32 run lighter than Kaspersky

i'm currently using bitdefender.
its the best antivirus software money can buy according to this site.
http://anti-virus-software-review.toptenreviews.com/
but there's another one that i had used for like 3 years before switching to bitdefender which is the symantec cooperate client.
its a very light and superb antivirus software i think.
but i switched to bitdefender because it has no firewall.
