Avast if you don't

For something so important, don't skimp. As I use Vista Ultimate 64 I'm constrained as there are very few AntiVirus packages that are comaptible. I had used Norton for years but moved to Avast when I moved to Windows x64. I quickly ditched that (it's c**p and rates very poorly in lab tests) and I paid for NOD32. I have to say that NOD32 is superb and I'd now use it as a stand-alone product over Norton AntiVirus.

Look at it this way; how much would you pay not to have to spend a weekend reformatting your computer? NOD32 costs £23 a year and cheaper if you purchase 2 or 3 year licences (which I will be doing after this year's expires).

Your choice but for the price of a curry and a couple of beers...........
