You're already using one of the best, IMO (Nod32). It's what I use on my system; and I use AVG on my parent's system.

Ooooh harsh Nvid!

I would also throw Kaspersky into the ring along with Nod32.

Kaspersky, Nod32, Avast!, and AVG are among the best (something that I still need to convince my boss of).

Looks like the stickies work then...or people just dont bother to search.

Is it just me or does it also bug other people?
