Solid free AV program. You can upgrade to the full version for a small price but the free version has been great for me, nary a problem.

DING DING DING!
I cringe when people say they bought Norton/Symantec or McAffee (or even got it through work). Those products are the worst thing you can do to a computer, aside from tossing it into a lake.
Havn't used Avast, but I do use AVG Free. Works great.
Although, I don't find much of a use for a virus scanner these days. I'm too old to care about downloading much stuff, I use Firefox with NoScript and I stay away from the "Russian Porn Sites"
Ad-Aware and Windows Defender cover my ass though.
