I got McAfee free with my ISP package and uninstalled it immediatly, for AVG. Too much of a resource hog, i hate the UI and im not convinced it offers full protection.

From what I've read AVG 8 is just resource hogging as a lot of popular retail Anti Virus products. Saying that the latest version of Norton has been on crash diet (uses no CPU power and low amounts of ram) and is one of best internet security products on the market.

Spybot should pick it up but you should have a Antivirus in place as well such as AVG or AVAST (if you don't want to pay).

I have to admit keyloggers scare me more then any other Virus, Trojan, spyware etc, I use internet banking a lot and I insist on copy and pasting all the codes from a encrypted file.

Norton and McAfee are both pretty useless in my mind. horrible to set up, and horrible to keep running without problems somewhere along the line.

Before you all ask, I use ESET NOD32.

Yeah i just need a good software, because i want to install an addon to a game called quest helper. I want to make sure it doesn't have any keyloggers first, people can say its clean but you can't ever be too safe. I really don't want anyone getting my account password.

i used wowmatrix for all my WoW installs and never had a single virus off it. Questhelper was one of the addons i used. I heard the Curse equivalent is riddled.
