Install the ones that don't catch anything just because it uses low system resources and you might as well just run my program.

If you didn't mean what you said, then what i said is obviously pointless, and i take it back. You wouldn't be the first person I came across who thought like that. Some assume that just because a program says anti-virus on it, that it will catch whatever is out there, so they only consider the system hit. Since this is clearly a faulty line of thinking, I thought I would point it out.

I didn't mean to stir anything up. I do understand very much that resource use is an important part of any software choice, but your phrasing led me to think that you were putting way to much emphasis on it.
