    was it ever NOT at the bottom? ^^ im using qihoo 360, good to see it at the top protection and usability wise :) scan performance can be indeed improved, but security is definitely more important ;)

    Qihoo AKA 360 Security combines the security power of BitDefender +Avira's scanning engines minus the buggy BitDefender program itself. For free, it's awesome, has no ads or nags and is very light on the system.

    I recommend the 360 Security Essential which does not include any bloatware or firewall, just a powerful AV and also has a Sandboxed mode to run apps sandboxed. :)
