Trend Micro
When I used Windows I used McAfee and Norton (not at the same time though).
With Linux I'm not using anything.
AVG is win
Though, I'm not stupid enough to download viruses and spyware, so I don't need it anyways.
I find that commercial security suites just slow things down which ironically is the thing they are supposed to prevent. So I stick with free or open source solutions
-AVG Free
-ClamWin
-A Squared Free
and Zone alarm for the fire wall, and of course Spybot spyware, and Ccleaner for the registry.
Here's a video of a guy having YouTube uploading troubles due to ZoneAlarm:

You forgot McAfree, the software that comes with like every new computer with a 3 month trial and makes your computer exit out of every window when it askes if you want to update your subscription once every 3 and a half minutes. I use AVG, because of the freeness

Trend Micro
You have my sympathies.
Its not my computer. Its kinda the family computer, I really couldn't care less about its safety, i'm buying myself a laptop soon anyway.
My mom got it because some guy at Best Buy recomended it (Thats a realiable source >_>). Whats wrong with Trend Micro anyway?
Kaspersky.
The best. <3

Terrible detection algorithm so it lets a lot of poop through, and it's a resource hog. Only nice thing about it is that it's cheap, and there are plenty of free antivirus programs out there that do a similar job.

I've got two macbook pros.
Bitch.
Besides, antivirus is for idiots who are stupid enough to get virii. I haven't had a single one since I got my computer 4-5 months ago.
