No, probably not. I have been using the free version of AVG for well over a year now. I wish I could afford to pay for it. I like it a lot.
Jump to Postwhat about the one from the housecall website? www.trendmicro.com
That's an on-line on-demand tool only and doesn't work in the background.

Grisoft.com has no time limiton it's AVG anti virus software. I found it works quite well. You can program it to automatically update and scan your sytem. You can pay to upgrade to additional features. They seem to have quick response to new threats.
You may also want pop up stopper from panicware.com . Its free (for the basic version).
Good luck.
