+1000

i'm an IT consultant too and have the exact same experience. i have seen AVG find and kill viruses that our multi-million dollar spyware/virus protection software completely miss. and it's free.

AVG. Dont' expect it to find all your spy/adware stuff too though. You should definitely get the free versions of Spybot Search and Destroy and AdAware. Run 'em both combined with the AVG for antivirus and you're good to go.

Just wanted to clear this up for anyone - Ad-Aware by Lavasoft is not an anti-virus, it just finds and deletes possible spam and adware. AVG and Avast! are great free anti-virus programs. If I had to pay for one though, I'd probably get Kaspersky.
