kaspersky is the best will detect every thing but u req a damm goog machin to run it in its full potential
one can easly comfig KAV to scan selected regions and if req disable active protect... if u r into downloading pirated stuff this is best protection download and scan .. if there is a warning del it ... Russians are best in making , deploying and also cleaning virus and togans
NOD 32 is light on resources but its latest ver is buggy.. dosent save config
if u r on old machine like me on athlon XP THIS IS BEST CHOICE
use update servers to update NOD 32 they are reliable

AVG has seen its golden ages but time has changed and others like Avast have really gone past AVG.
For a free AV Avast does a really good job. Most of the other AV solutions with realtime system monitoring are heavy on systems which includes paid solutions.
I have found Avast to be more than capable and mind you I am connected to net and DC++ hub 24x7.
On access scanner works beautifully catching everything before it hurts your system. Great vista support as well.
Very happy with avast, very light on resources, small updates, does not take long time. Perfect for home user.

You guys spend a lot on building a good PC so spend a little more and get a good AV program - Mcafee is 750, NIS 2008 is 1200 (both easily available). Before anyone disses NIS 2008, try it or at least read some reviews first. And if you have a credit card or paypal account, great, because you can purchase even better AV products online.
In 2007, the biggest change I've seen in tech and gaming communities is the number of people buying legit games which are typically cost 600-1000 bucks. Why not spend the same amount once a year to protect your pc/data than rely on other unreliable means?

LOL+1 for Avast,
I can disable the Standard shield and enable the webshield, so that all incoming files from the internet are scanned, and there is no performance drop while launching and working with the apps from local disks.
Of course, I enable standard shield while plugging in USB drives.
