I use AVG Free (I should probably get the full version) and am fairly
happy with it.  McAfee came with my laptop - but it's firewall drove me
nuts (yes, I know this program has changed, I just compiled it, and yes
it can access the internet) and I ended up disabling it.

Our clients use various virus detection tools, AVG is very common.  Many
anti-virus tools have become very bloated and can be quite slow to
interact with - Norton springs to mind.
