Computer Antivirus Software

I currently have McAfee on my computer and it bogs the entire thing down so much that I would like to get rid of it.

Anyone have any suggestions for a cheap/free virus software?

AVG or Avast will work just fine, and are totally free.

Avast! And yes, you have to include the exlamation point.

I prefer AVG, but if you are into pirate type theme go with Avast!

McAfee eats up everyone's system resources. These guys have some good ideas here.

Oops, my bad. Good call.

Avast! is a much prettier piece of software, if that's what you're into.

I've never tried Avast but I have had good luck with AVG. Doesn't seem to eat up resources like the other "big name" anti-virus apps.

I have used both AVG and Avast!...and for some reason I prefer Avast. I hardly notice Avast! while AVG seemed to slow my computer down. I have been more than satisfied with Avast!. Go to download.com and you can get either one.

Comodo makes excellent stuff, and they also have free AV. I haven't used it, but they have a great free firewall, and I use their registry cleaner often.

Not hiding anything (except for a couple of bodies in my crawlspace), but running this just really speeds things up and gets rid of unneeded crap...kind of like a digital enema.
