Gnomie fendabenda writes in with his top 5 favorite anti-viruses:

1. Kaspersky Anti-Virus Personal
   Kaspersky Anti-Virus Personal offers excellent anti-virus protection, perhaps unsurpassed in its ability to unpack and scan compressed files — something that trips up a lot of other vendors. Should be used in conjunction with a firewall.

2. BitDefender Antivirus Plus
   Softwin’s BitDefender Professional protects against viruses, spyware, and instant messaging threats, as well as offering firewall rules to block undesirable traffic and a privacy gateway to keep your identity and preferences private while surfing the Internet.

3. McAfee VirusScan Plus
   McAfee VirusScan Plus is an ideal candidate for those seeking an anti-virus/firewall combination without all the bloat of traditional Internet security suites. McAfee VirusScan Plus makes an easy job of removing adware and spyware, something not all anti-virus products deliver.

4. Eset Nod32
   Nod32 features a small footprint, low performance hit, and fast scan speeds, providing focused virus protection ideal for gamers or those with an older PC. Should be used in conjunction with a firewall. This is also a very nice anti-virus for computer experts, and nerds like Chris himself :) As it provides more use for those smarter few of us that want more features and need more protection.

5. Panda Antivirus 2007
   Panda Antivirus 2007 combines anti-virus, anti-spyware, and anti-phishing with its highly touted behavior-based TruPrevent Technology. License covers use on two computers and includes free tech support via email (telephone support options are also available).

EAV Antivirus Suite can detect and eliminate spyware, Trojans, key loggers, adware programs, browser hijackers, cookies, spy bots, trackware, and other malware, even new and unknown ones, on your PC. EAV Antivirus Suite will scan all running processes and local files in real time automatically once you run the software.
