I use Ad-Aware and Spybot. Spybot's Tea Timer has good real-time protection.

I also use Symantec Anti-Virus. It's basically a lite version of the full Norton package by the same company.

I haven't tried others. I can definitely say that even with adware/spyware/virus protection it can still get on your PC really bad. I had to format a few months ago because of adware and spyware that got on to my PC with real-time protection enabled. I used every known spyware and adware program to alleviate the program and none of them worked. I simply had to format. The bad part is that I hadn't been to any trash/porn sites. It just sort of happened one day while I was playing Battlefield Vietnam.
