Title: What virus scanner do you use?

What virus scanners do you use?

I am currently using Kaspersky Anti-Virus personal. Before that I was using Kaspersky Anti-Virus 5.0 and Norton 2003.

So far, I like Kaspersky Anti-Virus Personal best. It is very small and easy to use.

Norton for myself.  If I install antivirus protection on anyone elses machine for free, I use AVG from Grisoft
