But it's definitely the best free one.

I'm using avast and malwarebytes.

I use Microsoft Security Essentials. Its the most non intrusive, lightweight and best antivirus I have ever use. Of course you need a genuine copy of Windows to use this. I also have Spybot Search and Destroy and HiJackThis if something happens. So, sometimes even though you have a good antivirus, common sense is still the most efficient.

I used to have a McAfee Antivirus, but now I've switched to Microsoft Security Essentials after my McAfee subscription expired. AVG is good but my laptop keeps hanging.

I use MSE last time but now I use avast. MSE is pretty good cause it's not annoying and free.

I just use AVG free. I try really hard not to get viruses in the first place though.
