What kind of Security software do you use?

I use PC-Cillin Internet Security because for 1. They give you the newest version for free after your purchase ( I purchased 2006 version and got 2007 free). 2. It works a hell of a lot better than norton.

I'm currently using Avast! 4.7.

Has an on-Access scanner that is continiously running in the background (without consuming too much resources) and auto-updates itself with new virus databases as long as it detects you have an internet connection. But best of all....it's free!

I use AVG, simply because it is free and I don't have the money for Norton.
It is fairly decent at detecting virus, and offers real-time email scanning; besides taking up few resources.

It can be found at www.grisoft.com

I use AVG and have been for about 2 years. Very complete program, (when I first ran it years ago it found a Trojan missed by Norton) daily definition file updates, does not slow down my computer as McAfee and Norton did, and it's free.

I use McAffee Internet Suite, because it came free with Sky broadband. :)

I have used Norton, NOD32 and Kaspersky in the past, and I prefer NOD32 out of those three - Kaspersky kept blocking everything, and Norton was a real resource whore.
