I am looking for an antivirus for Windows XP because I am tired of all that shit that tries to infect my PC. So far I looked into Kaspersky Anti Virus and McAfee VirusScan. Which one is better or should I pick something entirely different?

Try AntiVir PersonalEdition Classic:
http://www.free-av.com/

It's free (for personal use).

No they don't. Norton sometimes can't delete bugs it finds

Norton even doesn't find some viruses sometimes...

Friend of mine used it... he stated his computer is virus-free... tested FreeAV... found 5 viruses icon_wink.gif

Afaik it's the best... at least it has won many comparing test of german computer magazines and websites.
