Free antivirus, whats best?

[finnlugg]

Hi!
I plan to do a new (clean) xp install today, and my question is:
Which free(of cost) antivirus do you think is best/do you recommend?

I have only experience with Nod32, wich I like, but this time I will go for a free version!!

I highly recommend AVG Free.

Wikipedia Quote:

AVG Free Edition has spearheaded the company's growth. According to Grisoft, over 40 million users have AVG Anti-Virus protection, including users of the Free Edition.

AVG is really a great anti-virus program that has been around for a long time. You won't go wrong with it.
