That's worrying. PC Tools AV is not too great I hear. I'm still waiting on a download so can't try anything yet. What about Avira?

What about Microsoft Security Essentials?
Or
Malwarebytes (not real-time unless you have a paid version I think)

I'll try Avira this afternoon on a clean install. MBAM seems to work, but I think it caused a BSOD when I tried to shutdown.
I'll also try other free alternatives and report back.

In fact I switched to panda on win7, it wasnt worse than anything else I'd used before.
