    What Anti-Virus software do you use, whether real-time or on demand? You can make multiple selections.

    Like pipester, It has to be NOD32 for daily protection.

    If I am going to run a online scan then I use F-Secure or Kaspersky.

    I use Kaspersky. Also often use VirusTotal (for scanning suspicious files) and do online scan with Trend/BD/Norton/Panda every few months... just use them randomly, dont scan with all of them

    Kaspersky, Bitdefender, TrendMicro Housecall, Symantec, Virustotal, Jotti Online scans (whichever I choose.) There're other online scanners also available from most av houses.

    Dr.Wed Cureit Utility that does not need to be installed.
    Then various utilities.
    Like programs akind to AVZ Antiviral Toolkit type.

    Antivir. I almost voted none. My mail is scanned before it reaches me. Haven't seen a virus in years - lots of false positives but not the real thing. Anyway Antivir seems fairly light so I run it just in case.

    None, don't really need one with the way my computer is setup and the fact that my ISP scans all of the mail (i strip away attachments and render it as text as well anyways).

    Cheers,

    This is a rotating and revolving cycle on this end, i can early on recall AVAST for some months then a jump to AntiVir, then "NONE" resident when HIPS arrived, only "onliners", but now have again tried Avira AntiVir and actually favor it, however wanted to see results for BitDefender, so that is my current choice to this poll.

    Saw where BitDefender made huge stride to top in another Topic here right after my install, BUT........ NOD32 seems to own favorship to all others and from some posts i can understand why.
