I have used Avast antivirus for about one and half years
now and I'm very pleased with it. It picks upp viruses
well and it has an automatic update through Internet.
Update is done very often, almost every day. So the amount
of data is seldom bigger than what can be transfered
in less than 20 seconds through a 56K modem line.

It's free for private use.

You can download it at:
