    NOD32 or Kaspersky would top my list, but AVG Free and Avast! will also run on it.
    Read my blog here.

    I've been using Avast on my Vista computers. Seems to work well. I also recommend the Comodo firewall, free and it replaces the worthless Vista firewall.

    I'm running AVG free and Comodo firewall. So far everything works great!

    People actually run software firewalls?

    Sure, along with a router with a firewall.

    AVG misses a virus every 1.5month (on average) so how would you know if you use AVG?

    I guess I don't surf to the sites you surf to

    I've never seen a 'perfect' antivirus package so I do a check up from time to time with Cureit and Trendmicro house call. Then the odd Spybot S&D. So far nothing has ever flagged anything other than when AVG has given me a warning. In my estimation that's good.
