I like McAfee's VirusScan and Clean programs.
They are available as shareware (I think the registration costs $35-- still
cheaper than retail software!).
It is revised almost monthly to find more (recent) viruses.
It is EASY to use.
It works!!!!!!  I speak from experience (unfortunately, a bad experience).
McAfee specializes in Virus software.
Other companies (Norton, Central Point, etc) just produce anti-virus programs
on the side, but their main focus is the larger stuff.
There really is no reason to spend more money than you have to for a
good, reliable Anti-Virus program.
