Any decent free anti-virus stuff?

My Norton AV subscription is about due for renewal, but as it now costs almost as much as buying the latest version and sometimes hasn't been loading updates properly I just wondered if there were any good free alternatives for single user PCs?

Thanks

I was given Norton 2006 to replace my out of date version - I ditched it after trying it because it seem to really slow the PC down and it took minutes for my laptop to boot. I have installed Avast antivirus after seeing it mentioned on here and so far I am impressed with it - it even found something that Norton 2006 did not.

Norton is C**P! it raps itself around your system, strangling it to prevent viruses running, only issue being, nothing else works either. Pig to get off your system once its installed. I would wipe the hard drive and reinstall after trying to remove Norton.
