Now, how did you forget the most known Eset Nod32?

I'm using it since it's very soft on system resources and also very fast in detection.

Although I have to say that recently I was experiencing computer freezes so I've uninstalled it just yesterday and now I don't have any protection until I move to Win 7. I'll probably use Nod32 again, since I have an active license for it.

I've installed AVG on my friend's PC and I can say it's pure trash. It was reporting some files which were not in the system at all. Full paths were non-existent.

For a free AV, I'd be safer with Avast.

I'd go for Nod32, but you can wait for other members suggestions and experiences.

ESET received mostly positive comments regarding its compatibility with Windows 7 in beta and RC stages, moreover, many users recommend it as the best security solution for this new operating system. It's working pretty well, although developers do not officially state it is compatible with Windows 7.

Most applications that are written and work with WIndows Vista will work on Windows 7 without any issues, but I'm sure that Eset will release a Windows 7 version of Nod32 before new operating system reaches shops in October.

Depends on whether you need firewall and anti-spam filter.

Microsoft Outlook has good enough spam/junk filter so I do not need the one from Eset.

As for the firewall, I'm using hardware/router firewall along with Vista firewall. So, I don't need a firewall from Eset.

Nod32 Antivirus has anti-virus and anti-spyware protection which is enough for my needs.

I voted ESET because I was testing both ESS as well as Symantec Endpoint Protection and ESET was better on Win7. SEP had installation problems which have been worked out with the latest maintenance release/patch.

I've been using SEP for over a year now on Vista with zero problems. But I still think ESET is better. I just get SEP for free from work, I'm a cheapskate!
