We've been using McAfee as it's free with Telecom but going to change internet provider so need to purchase new antivirus.

TBH I'm not that happy with McAfee, just tolerated it since it was free. It didn't pick up some nasty malware we had last year.

Any experience with Kapersky?

Cheers!

We have trend micro, which you have to pay for, I think after the initial cost its $12 a year, but we have had nothing go wrong.

We use AVG free edition too - great support when I had a virus last year that managed to sneak in just before the software did its auto upgrade. Managed to sort it all myself with the AVG support help...and no problems since. I've been using it for years and that was the first issue so I'm really happy with it.

We use Avast Free. Have used both Avast and AVG and prefer Avast as it doesn't appear to update at stupid times like AVG does.

Don't bother buying when there are free, legitimate downloads available :)
