A word of caution. Some of these top-rated AV solutions can have an impact on gaming in various ways. BitDefender did cause me problems with CS but that may have been all sorted by now.

Because, like most people these days, my computer now sits behind a router with inbuilt protection I find that the following serves me well enough ...

Avast.
Spywareblaster.
Windows Firewall (XP)
Windows Defender.

All free and absolutely no gaming hit at all.

New on BitDefender;
QuoteThis latest version of BitDefender has a new Gamer Mode feature that minimizes impact on gaming performance so you can play safe. The software still has all of the reliable features for which Bitdefender is known such as “Privacy Protection” for outgoing personal information, “Web Scanning” while you’re using the Internet and “Rootkit Detection and Removal,” which detects then removes hidden virus programs

NOD32 didn't stop some virii for me, so I went to back to AVG and Windows Firewall. Been ok ever since. Do a weekly scan with Ad-Aware for spyware...
