You don't need an anti-virus as long as you use your brain.

I have Kaspersky and Norton, seems to do the job :P - Even though I don't need them

I was a fan of AVG, but this new 2011 version they released sucks hard, it uses too many resources... like Norton. I'd recommend Microsoft Security Essentials, it does the job and keeps to itself, and uses very little resources

Using AVG now for over 6 years, no problems.

Hmm well the 2011 version was released a few months ago, and at that time it slowed all the computers in my home to a crawl (my PC has 4 GB of RAM also). Perhaps they patched the problem, but I wasn't the only one experiencing that considering the AVG forums were flooded with complaints at the time.
