Cheers Lads
Can't get a 'safe' version of Nod32 in my usual place so plumping for Avast with the Malwarebytes Anti-Malware software for now
Much appreciated !

using avast and comodo firewall with malware bytes
only problem I get is occasionally with malware bytes running on startup. It freezes the pc. I read somewhere a reinstall of dotnet framework. Workaround which seems to work for me is to manually start it after pc completed startup totally.

Depends how careful you are I guess. Ive not had a virus for quite some time and avast generally has been good. Beggars cant be choosers when its free 
Suffered from malware but a few runs of malware bytes usually sorts that out

you will find that is the problem with them all.
If a file is infected and has got passed what ever you use then it will be there...you will find many posts going back over the years on this and many forums of people extolling the virtues of all the various products out there.
Many of the products give false +v's this in many cases is why when people swap to a new product and suddenly find many virii that their previous product failed to find.
i use a combination of products
a smoothwall firewall and router that includes clam antivirus for pop e-mail so it catches them pesky virus before they hit my windows machines this is a linux based system that runs on an old 386 pc
server runs kaspersky v6 server av
clients use a combination of avast and nod32

I use Kaspersky and never had any issues with it and isn't that hungry on the memory, well the latest version isn't. You can also get it for free if you setup online banking with Barclays. I did that 2 years ago and they just renew it for me each year.
well worth checking out in my view. Im sure other banks do the same, offering free AVS if you set up an online account, so worth checking out with ur bank if they do.
