I use two -- Panda AntiVirus Platinum and AVG.  I have used and
trusted Panda for a while now but picked up AVG for it's
integration with TB via plug-in as someone already mentioned.
After a while AVG has gained my respect and now is also used as
a double check.

However, I let neither run on it's own.  The only automatic
scanning done here is by AVG on incoming email.  Anything else I
check manually.  I've only ever been burned by one virus /
trojan and that was CodeRed.  For that type of threat, these
days I use Sygate Personal Firewall.

All the above I use for their configurability and simple ability
to drop down to manual mode. If I were using a shared computer I
would consider other more automatic configurations if not other
products entirely.
