Which Antiviurs to use?

Well, this post may be a little out of the ordinary, but I'm trying to figure out which antivirus/security suite is the absolute best.

I have used AVG free, AVG security whatever, and currently BitDefender. I've looked at some reviews online, and some of the top names appear to be Kapersky, Norton (Specifically 2009), BitDefender, and another one that I forgot.

So far, from my own personal experience, BitDefender appears to be superior to AVG. I really like the control that BitDefender gives me. I can even control which websites are allowed to write/read cookies, store scripts on my computer, etc. Plus their antivirus appears to be top-notch.

However, I have only tried these two antiviruses. What do you guys think is best? Any good reviews or tech tips from tech-y friends? Let me know in the comments.

Anti-virus, huh? My anti-virus software includes eating lots of fruits and veggies, washing my hands a lot and getting plenty of sleep. I am no help in this department. :)

I'm afraid I'm not much help either. I remember years ago we used to use Norton. We've had Command and AVG. And at work we use Sophos now. I'd like to think that any of them would take care the major things out there and offer the protection I need, but I really don't know...
