Look for one with the lowest memory footprint, as they call it. I’ve tried several, and Avast fits my bill.

I use Avast, not as intrusive as Norton and others.

I’ve put free Avast on five computers, no complaints here.

I'll throw in another vote for AVG. That's what I use. I've been using it for a while on several computers, so inertia is keeping me from changing -- there would have to be a substantial advantage, and I don't see one.

Avast! Hands down.
You're better off simply purchasing it. Also download Malwarebytes too.

I hear McAfee is a real killer.

What do you use with Malwarebytes? Malwarebytes alone isn’t good enough, it’s good for supporting other antivirus software.
To: mmichaels1970
Microsoft Security Essentials Yeah, if you're using Windows Me. ROFL!
To: Doogle
My guy told me that Avast actually reads a page before it loads. Others do not. I don’t know if that is accurate or not.
