+1 Security Essentials

It protects, is well maintained and doesn't piss me off. Every single non-Enterprise AV product I've ever tried has pissed me off in some way.

What I don't get is why Symantec and McAfee do reasonably good enterprise clients but shit consumer ones. At least CA's consistent and is shit across the board.
Will be interesting to see how Symantec Endpoint and McAfee VirusScan Enterprise compare to MS Forefront. Just need to find a client willing to set it up.

Ah, if only 'because Mark wants to play with the new shinies' was a valid business case.
:D

How is Kaspersky Internet Suite? They seem to get very good reviews generally.
