Anti virus software?
What do you guys reccomend? I just got a new laptop, new desktop for the shop, and new desktop for home.
Is there anything free out there that works?

I have been using Avast! and have also used AVG's free version.
Both work very well.

After suffering some conflicts between Norton antivirus and some software I decided to try MSE. No problems thus far (1 year), no conficts. And it`s free.
(If you`re running OSX... ignore the above)

We use Eset at work and have been happy with it. I use MS Security essentials at home and have been happy with it plus it's free. MSSE would be my choice.
