All of the ones listed above, and ive got a friend who had Mcafee, it was basically screwed up and not working, even windows security center said her machine had no AV
had a hard time removing it aswell, you need a special removal tool to get the thing off, and then i got her to instal AVG and it picked up about 10 virus and some worms etc.
Im not shitting you either, end of the day people will always have their opinions/experiences on whats best and what the best practice is.

LAST place
None of the three free antivirus products tested for the "The New Virus Fighters" ranked highly, but Grisoft's AVG Antivirus Free Edition holds the distinct honor of having placed last among all ten paid and free contenders due to a clunky interface, the omission of significant features, and below-average performance.
In our performance tests, AVG Free Edition ranked second to last. (Alwil Software's free Avast Home Edition ranked last.) While AVG Free Edition caught nearly 100 percent of bots and zombies in our collection of zoo malware, it caught a disappointing 65 percent of Trojan horses. It ranked second-to-last in our heuristics tests--detecting just 11 percent of worms and 8 percent of backdoor programs using one-month-old virus data.
As i said, its wank
