i decided to figure out witch antivirus to use. i made a poll. first to 12. if there is a great av that i missed just post and i will add it. the ones the poll started with are just from the top of my head. note it has to be free other than mcafee 7.0 witch i bought
 
McAfee 7.0 is two generations old. Don't expect state-of-the-art protection from it, even with current antivirus definitions (if they even support it anymore).

use the freeware antivir, much better detection rate than AVG according to spywareinfo's trilobite's detection tests

I tried both antivir and avg, antivir found 6 trojans norton missed, though I couldn't stand the interface, then I tried avg, it found 2 more trojans and the interface is much more intuitive. my suggestion would be to dowload both and try them out one at a time and choose "witch" one works best for you.
 
What about Kaspersky, Nod32, BitDefender?

What do you want in best? All three I mention have excellent detection.

Kaspersky -Most thorough in scanning archives, but not the most stable on some machines
Nod32 -Very light footprint, but horrible gui
BitDefender - Excellent gui, large footprint, integrated firewall/spam blocker

I wasn't impressed with AVG, still trying Avast, won't touch anything from McAfee, and haven't tried Anti-vir yet.
