Which antivirus program do you use?

I'm finally thinking of getting a new antivirus software. I am using Norton now and I've had just about enough with it! Way too much problems! Sometimes my pc gets so annoyingly slow. The same happens to my internet connection too. It's causing way too much headache for me.

So, what antivirus software do you guys use and suggest? I'm gonna uninstall Norton now!

I downloaded ZenOK Free Antivirus - This was probably the best one that I used out of the below, its small and even has script blocking and bootable virus scanning that is amazing. You got all the options you need to manage the infected file @ reboot and the interface is very easy to use, even skinnable if you like. Probably updated as frequent as MicroTrend.

I was using Norton because my day job used it (big company) so thought it must be good. It let a virus on that I ended up having to format the hard drive and start over to get rid of. Then I moved to Bit Defender 2009 which was rated very good and has not let a single problem get on 6 computers. But I only had a two year license and when it came time to look again, there were a lot of complaints about Bit Defender 2011 so I did some research and went with Kaspersky. So far, so good. By the way, I always shop for the software on Amazon. You can get amazing software deals on new, still sealed software.

We just upgraded to Trend Micro PC-cillin Internet Security 2006. It' easy to use and we've never experienced the symptoms you described.

I also use pc-cillin. It's great, very user-friendly compared to other antivirus software I've used in the past.
