Kaspersky has one of the best virus detection rates out there, it gets my vote.

McAfee 8.5i! This has been my trusted anti virus for the past few years. Doesnt even slow pc that much!

My vote goes to the new Panda Cloud antivirus, Good detection and prevention and also probably the lowest drain on the system out of any i have used, Plus its silent which I like. I hate to be pestered by questions!

My second choice is Kaspersky for detection!

McAfee is the one i prefer the most

I have been using mcafee 8.5i on my work laptop since 2 yrs up until 3 months ago, when i changed to mcafee 8.7 and i have just installed patch 1 (the 8.7 sometimes spikes the CPU to 100%, will see how that goes after patch1)

At my Home PCs (three, one for each of us three brothers) I have mcafee 8.5i+spyware module and Comodo firewall, all three machines are connected via ADSL/router and all of us use USB drives to get videos/mp3s/software/VB.NET projects and what not from PCs who are barely functioning and we are yet to get infected.

PS. I have a USB Cruzer Titanium drive with U3 for which I have purchased a licensed Avast! version (it resides on the USB drive and scans the USB on-access and the host computer as soon as you plug it in) and It is has been virus free since 2 yrs

I have been using McAfee Enterprise for the past few years.  First version 8.0 (so many patches), then 8.5, then 8.7, only to go back to 8.5 when Vista x64 would not recognize 8.7 correctly.

I currently use 8.5i patch 7 on a variety of operating systems (Windows Server 2003, XP, 2000) and it has never let me down.  The AntiSpyware option makes it that much more useful.  Fortunately, it looks like patch 8 addresses the problem of quarantining cookies ad nauseum.
