The best thing about NOD32 is it's extremely low impact on system resources. There are more comprehensive protection programs out there with a scope that is larger than what you're at risk from via web browsers, but for keeping you safe from viruses, trojans, and the like, NOD32 is pretty bulletproof. The larger-scope antivirus programs almost always hog so many resources that you experience significant performance issues.

If I was going to purchase an Anti-Virus I would choose the Kaspersky and consider the NOD32 you mention.

I would also recommend trying Sandboxie. It isn't a anti-virus/spyware/malware program in that it doesn't try to block them. It traps them and prevents them from getting out onto your computer, then you can have it erase them. Read up on it... http://www.sandboxie.com/
I downloaded Sandboxiie and WOT "Web of Trust for Firefox" as added protection to my Avast, Spybot & Ad-Aware.

I think I'm pretty well protected.
