I just updated mine 5 days ago after 2 years of not updating and it has detected 2 viruses in the last 5 days. I only had one on my comp once i got the virus program.
AVG Anti-virus
It gets one every once in a while.
A few days ago it got one from an unreliable site.
You should try it Greadius. I'm very happy with it and it is update constantly without any complications.
I use Norton Anti-Virus, and update virus definitions weekly. I also scan my system once a week. I have never found any viruses on my computer, but about once a year I'll encounter a virus in something I download. Norton catches it before it can infect my system. AV protection is an absolute must.
I'm using Trendmicro PC-Cillin. Up till now it's working fine with me, never had a virus on the computer, it was always detected before. I automatically update pattern files about twice per week, but since I once was responsible for virus-protection in the company I worked, I'm perhaps a little paranoid.

I use Norton and a year and a half ago I found a few virusses coming from a computer at my work, I don't know how that happened as there was a firewall and virusscanner on that computer. I guess the computer-department never updated the virusscanner or firewall..... Anyway, since then I never had a virus again.
