I have a paid subscription to Avira and I'm changing to Microsoft Security
Essentials. It's totally unobtrusive, works great and it's free.

Then which free one would you go for?

Avast

Supplement it with;

ZoneAlarm (free)
SpywareBlaster (free)
Firefox (free)
Spybot Search & Destroy (free) <- this is only an insurance policy by
the time you have the others on !

If you want to start getting picky then, get some plugins for Firefox;

AdBlockPlus plugin
Flashblock
NoScript (I find this more of a nuisance than a solution though)

Today it would be " Avast " but this is always subject to change. And
as Colin pointed out before me, I would likely supplement this too
with some other software. Personally I use a paid one and supplement
it too but nothing wrong with skipping my way because if you change
your choices completely each year, there is no financial loss. I
will repeat what I always say.... when you feel confident your system
is clean, make a full backup.
