Spyware, viruses, & security : Which AV is right for me? All advice is Appreciated

mcafee or norton nah, use pccillin!

I've tried norton, mcafee and am now using pccillin.
in my humble opinion trend pccillin is the best of the three. norton finds stuff but, if you want to get rid of the virus you have to pay them extra - which is a ripoff. If it's supposed to stop the darn things in the first place why do you end up having to spend extra for the service you already paid for? Can't recommend them.
mcafee would always send me to the upgrade page whenever I wanted to go to the update page, which as you may know, the upgrade page costs money. it always seemed to mcafee that my subscription, that was only three months old, was hopelessly out of date. then one day last month a virus took over my mcafee program rendering it useless. no firewall or virus scan. couldn't even reinstall it from the disk that i bought. mcafee was absolutely no help at all. can't recommend them either.
But, trend pccillin seems to be the answer for me. It's simple, the firewall actually works! I never have any problems gaming, downloading, chatting, whatever. it's very non invasive. and the virus scan works like a charm! Finds 'em, attempts to clean the file first, than if it can't it tries to delete the infected file, and if that fails it quarantines the infected file. effortlessly! And all in REAL TIME! Yeah. You can then delete the file yourself or pccillin will do it in 15 days. I really like this program because it's simple (duh, for me that's great), it doesn't ask you questions about stuff that you don't have any idea about, and it does what it is supposed to do! I can recommend this program! oh yeah, it's rated #1 at cnet and it's cheap! i run xp pro sp2 and they get along just fine; no fighting!
