Secondary anti-virus

[Kevin Renn]

I use AVG as my resident anti-virus and I have zonealarm as my firewall.
About once a week I run panda or trend micro home visit (both online
scanners) as my on-demand secondary scanners. I have spybot and adaware
that I use about once a week also.

Is there any suggestions for another secondary scan or does this sound like
sufficient protection for regular internet use?

I would recommend Panda Truprevent personal. It is designed to be a
secondary anti-virus and it's online scanner can run together with
another without problems or eating up system resources.
