I used to run McAfee, which worked quite nice. I removed it some time ago because it definitely slowed down my PC. Been happy & clean ever since. IMHO you're safe as long as you don't open unknown files, and live behind a firewall. Off course it helps a lot not to use Outlook Express or Internet Explorer.

The only thing that slightly worries me are macro viruses inside Word documents. So I'm curently looking for an AV scanner that only runs on command, for instance when I drop a file on its desktop icon.
