Jump to PostI never catch anything
You never catch anything that you/your AV software knows of ;)
and I have a windows partition, using Avast on it as well. Seems to be one of the best choices currently out there now especially that it is free
Jump to PostIf you really want a protection, paranoidal, I recommend you Comodo with Paranoid Mode on. I almost fell off the chair, when I found Comodo asking
"Can I allow explorer.exe access to C:/Users/admin/Desktop/games/".
Or
"Can I allow firefox.exe access to registry keys".
Jump to PostNone! I use Windows as my main SO and I gave up AV more than 5 years, ago and I only had one problem with malware because I plugged in a infected USB. After that I started using AutoRun Exterminator and had no more problems!
Why don't I use AV? …
Jump to PostBased on Antivirus tests the best among them are: Kaspersky, Avast, Avira and Bitdefender. Tools that are best at detecting threats, but only limited to Anti-Malware are: Junkware Removal Tool, Malwarebytes, AdwCleaner, HitmanPro and Roguekiller. (Warning) Yearly Antivirus Test Results may vary....
Jump to PostJust to update my previous answer... I don't use Windows as my main OS anymore and I feel much safer. I just run lynis and chkrootkit once a while and follow up the suggestions.

True. If you want best antivirus, I'd say, go Linux.
