Avast is the best free AV out there...AVG use to be.

I use symantec corporate...i dunno how much its supposed to cost

[COWL327]

Norton and the likes are system hogs

norton home products are way different than symantec corporate. I know its the same company but different products. i can tell you mine is not a "system hog"

You can either pay for full real time protection or you can just have this scan for free and it does just as well as the name brand ones.

Panda antivirus, spyware doctor with antivirus, or kapersiki are great antivirus programs to use.my brother works for the geek squad at best buy and they suggest any of the above programs to use as some of the best ones to get.
