Another vote for Avira from me.0

they are both good and it does depend on whats most important to you, avast does use slightly less resources however does have a lower detection rate, but avast doesnt have the nag screen avira does, avast also has an email scanner,Drop a brand challenge
on a £100 shop you might on average get 70 items save
10p per product = £7 a week ~ £28 a month
20p per product = £14 a week ~ £56 a month
30p per product = £21 a week ~ £84 a month (or in other words one weeks shoping at the new price)0 -

I'd suggest either following the advice here:avast doesnt have the nag screen avira does
http://www.elitekiller.com/files/disable_antivir_nag.htm
Or to completely get rid of all nag screens then have a look at this:
http://sourceforge.net/projects/gnag/0 -
the important thing to note is, because they are both free (along with MSE), if one goes down the pan or one suddenly starts being a million times better than the others, just change, no cost, not much hassle, no skin off your teeth.0
