    AVG (i can't believe only a few people mentioned this, it rocks!)

    Free/Downloaded (i would send a link, but dont want to get in trouble, i could pm you with it if you want?)

    10/10, never had an issue with it and i tell everyone i know to use it!!!

    NOD32 is the best antivirus. (period)
    mainly because a lot of viruses target the heavly advertised ones like norton and disable them. also i have NEVER had a virus hacker worm or anything with NOD32.

    pay- but there are lots of cracks going around

    im using avast too, and IMO, its much better than any other. its free, simple to install, adware-free, doesnt slow down comp, etc.

    avast.com

    9.7/10?

    Nortan on this computer (not happy with the way it slows down my computer. Some people say nortans fine, but with the way I use the computer it just isnt good for my needs. For example, I have dreamweaver, photoshop, ftp clients, firefox, trillian, and a music player all going and sometimes I'll be downloading SQL backups of my site which, and often many files just start getting scanned by Nortan, which brings the entire computer to its knee's and crashes programs most of the time.)

    Avast I havnt tested under the above conditions, but it works fgreat from what I've used of it.
