Which antivirus do you use?

RE: Which antivirus do you use?
I got sick of the "overhead" virus software always put on the cpu.

I switched to Microsoft Security Essentials ... my reasoning...

1. Microsoft for years and years is getting so much criticism over vulnerabilities in windows. So they have a strong interest to put a stop to it.

2. Microsoft can develop their solution to work with operating system better than anyone else since its theirs.

3. The fact that they give it away for free when they use to charge for it -- because they are desperate for people to protect their computer --but they can't include it automatically because of anti-trust issues -- they give it for free and for the most part -- it has worked for me for the last few years without incident.

But I am also careful not to click on stupid trap links or install stuff that I don't know what it is.

I'm interested in checking out KIS though since it seems to be so popular here.
