I don't feel the need. Actually just ran a scan with MBAM last week (dad's computer got a virus, had to remove it for him so I had MBAM laying around) and had no infections.

AVG, and I barely use it. Pretty good at monitoring my activity.

AVG. I'm surprised three people have already posted in this thread saying they don't use any virus protection at all.

Nod 32.  It did come up with a false positive saying the executable for the Kane and Lynch 2 demo on Steam was a virus...or was it a false positive?

Avira AntiVir. Yes, I do pay for the basic package, but it helps me avoid hijack attempts and malware from shadier sources than the free anti-virus programs.

Avast for my virus protection needs. Along with some spyware thing I run once in a while and CCleaner for well, the crap I need deleted.

I'm actually running Windows 7. Like others have said, it's pretty easy to avoid viruses as long as you watch what you're doing.

Kaspersky and I hate it so much. It constantly tells me gamenamegoeshere.exe is a virus and won't let me run a game the first time I launch it. Ugh.

AVG.  It's free and simple, and stays out of the way.
 
Also Spybot and Ccleaner.

Vipre Antivirus Software and Malwarebytes are a pretty decent combination. Vipre's about 30 bucks a year, and Malwarebytes is free for all it's worth. I'm not one to dish out loads on software, but both of those earn my vote. Check it out; the ratings will probably blow you away (They do actual tests against hundreds of thousands of viruses each year, and see who comes out on top).

Used to use AVG but went to McAfee just because I wanted a firewall and didn't want to pay AVG through there website.
