I do run ad-aware & S&D daily aswell.
Best of all Avast is completely Free

Don't really want to start this argument again, but going what i've heard before you've got a pretty fast internet (faster than my 2mb anyway), my last NOD32 update was within the kb range, and took literally seconds to download. Now i know i can set it to manual, but surely with an internet like yours an AV updating isn't really going to affect anything, i mean according to benchmarks or whatever it may show a 3 nanosecond difference, but real world performance as in actually missing a shot or lagging surely isn't going to happen? Unless your getting up to date on a few months worth of definitions (like when i install NOD its more like a 60mb download!).
Excuse me if i'm wrong though...
