Any recent antivirus recommendations?

I used AVG for a long time, but the last few months it's caused a lot of other issues on my machine, especially trying to run games.

Checked out this thread, but the link from it no longer exists:

AVG has also been hijacking my web searches. It seems to have gotten much more invasive

Still using Avast! Free without any issues...

avast still leading the way in the free AV market and in some cases better then some of the paid versions out there 2nd choice would be MSE

Avast is what I use as well.

Thanks, guys. I made the switch to Avast and everything seems to be working smoothly now.
