Oh, I don't use it now
as I have to use a work licensed one in order to get onto the intranet to do stuff from home.

However, I did find it useful, but you're right it is very clunky and uses up a large amount of resources...but I found Norton to be the same. Admittedly I've not used Kaspersky.

I once tried Bullguard. My God that was fucking awful.
Made my laptop so fucking slow it might as well have been riddled with cyber-nasties.

This ^
AVG was good back in the day with version 6, even 7.0 was OK but since then it has been getting more and more bloated for no gains in usuability or detection. Add to that the fact that they don't have a free edition of the x64 edition and I've moved on to Avast and have been very happy with it once I remembered to switch off the update notification sounds so I stopped getting woken up by my laptop in the middle of the night robotically saying "Virus database has been updated"

I've tried
probably every fucking AV under the sun, and can only recommend McAfee, and Panda (from 2009 on) - again, not free though
