I've been using Avast on all the comps for awhile now. It does a much better job then AVG. It is also recomemded off the microsoft site, that may be good, may be bad....lol
Its skinable so you can customise it if your runnin themes.
Updates very frequently and I think it uses less resources then AVG or Norton
Im running avast (free version) seems quite good. Gets good reviews similar to AVG and both often beat Norton etc at detection.
I like the option to scan during screen saver and boot scan (pre-windows start if/when needed)
Auto updates 1-3 days
And the audio speech in addition to alert boxers.
I also created desktop button to scan memory which Ive got in
startup folder too. Details on their forum using "ashquick.exe"
