Which is the best antivirus in your opinion? I always surf in the web but I'm afraid for these really bad things called virus, spyware, trojan and other. What do you use in your PC?

Try installing a linux system in stead of Microsoft Windows. Linux systems doesn't get computer viruses.
I recommend Ubuntu linux, it's free, very user friendly and comes with a completely graphical user interface.

If you don't want to pay for good one, then you should get Avast. Its really good, its free, you get free updates and it has very nice inferface. It is also good protecting from viruses and you can choose do you want delete it or do some other things with the virus. If i were you i would download Avast, i have had it for 2 years now when i got my own computer and not a single virus have got to my computer. Its really great.

well cyber cafes are usually most prone areas for cyber crimes and they use McAfee antivirus. if you are going for it go for the suite rather than the antivirus only because the suite gives a wonderful protection as a combination of all facilities. Norton suites give comparable performance but system clogging is involved in it more.
AVG and Avast come on the freeware zone. AVG has been performing quite good. the updates are fine too.
kaspersky is a promising one. the security level is good. about antispyware products i suggest use spyware terminator and adaware as no anitspyware product is complete. u may look at my blog
