I voted Panda...cause its the best full suite (AV, anti-spyware, etc...are all great).

I use Kaspersky though...cause I never use windows (linux fanboy).

McAfee and Norton are just terrible...nothing but ressource-hogging bloatware. PCCillin is a pretty good AV...for a "mainstream" AV program...also affordable.

AVG is decent...but if you really want protection...you gotta fork out a bit of money for Panda, Kaspersky, or PC-cillin.

Does anyone else have an opinion?

I heard Avast is good but I have not tried it out yet and not planning to untill I get a review.
