http://www.avira.com/ Just to keep your options open. On the Antivirus test run by a memember here this program scored above everything else, including the ones you pay for.

You could also look through the Networking / Security forum, where they have different threads about things like this.

Antivir. Flatout the best, it's so much better than crappy AVG.

Personally, I've always been a fan of ClamWin AntiVirus. (http://www.clamwin.com/) You may want to give that a try.n0aH said:

You asked for a FREE scanner, which is why jcw122 recommended AntiVir... Kaspersky isn't free.n0aH said:

Free. AV is not something I am willing to mess with by having to pay for it. Waste of time

Thanks guys. As a long time subsciber to Norton AV and McAfee before that I was looking for alternatives to the Symantec resource hog, read this thread and didn't have to ask anyone a single question.
Don't really care if it's free or not, just so it's GOOD! I'll pay for good stuff (but free is always better
).Avira 7 Classic just downloaded.

Nobody's got love for Avant! AV? I've got it running on 4 rigs and it runs like a champ.
