KAV hands down... no other anti virus beats it... i swear to everything awesome, if you buy KAV you will be protected like a triple wraped tool in a dirty you know what... trust me... KAV = best, updates virus signatures ALOT quick 10 second updates that start automatically that update whenever new viruses are released, or new strains of trojans are released. super fast detection. I love it.

To say that one AV outperforms another top-notch AV is just redic!! There is no way to confirm/test this. Different av's respond/act to different things. Too many av's alert of false positives and this gets really annoying.

Because no-one will admit to having crap software on their computer, their own installed antivirus is always the best.
You will never get a true answer so read as many independant reviews as possible to help make your mind up.
BTW, I have AVG suite and it beats anything out there
^^ Correct The best way to find an answer is to research using google, then?
Find a non-biased website which, may be difficult.

I use the free ones. Avast and AVG free
I have never had any issues with viruses on my laptop. Avast is better at detecing viruses from websites coming into my computer, have got alerts from several bogus websites before for trojans and worms.
AVG seems to operate better when just scanning my computer every weekend as it has seemed to pick up more malware and viruses than the avast scan.
So far no issues regarding viruses but I avoid websites that are reknowed for viruses at all costs.

I've been using Avast Home free for about 5 years with excellent results. It always informs me of any incoming garbage and my breath has never been fresher.
AVG Free was a nightmare, and Norton 360 (shudder) I can still feel it on the roof of my mouth.
