Microsoft Security Essentials I had Avast and ZoneLabs on my just-died computer. And I'd run Malwarebytes and Spybot from time to time. Rarely found anything. Subnet and others told me MSE for my new one. And maybe something like Threatfire to snag the one's that aren't in the database yet. |

Avira catches a TON of things AVG missed. I have unistalled AVG and now use Avira in conjunction with NoScript on my Firefox browser.
This seems to eliminate pretty much all problems.... <Knock on wood> |

Just use Microsoft Security Essentials and have MalwareBytes on hand in case anything gets by. |

My personal experiences
Microsoft Security Essentials: Used for six months, 2 infections. AVG: Used for six years, 1 infection. Norton: Used for two years, 1 infection. For my money, AVG seems to be the way to go. Quoted:

I've had two viruses get through Microsoft Security Essentials in the last 30 days. One was mostly harmless, the other rendered the computer unusable (remapped *.exe file type among other things) and required cleanup by hand in safemode. Yeah, it's easy to use, but there's something seriously wrong when I've got foreign binaries running wild that got in through a browser. |

I've used it a couple times on other computers to clean out some kind of crazy virus/ trojan type thing. My computer isn't the one that gets infected so I usually just download to a flashdrive and install to the computer when someone asks me for help. |
