If your PC picks up a virus, whose fault is it?

Well can't go past KIS for paid for - well config'd it's set and forget never had a problem in almost two years and I just think the online banking set up and safe run are the ducks guts!
For freebies - Comodo the nearest thing I've seen to KIS as long as you get rid of the Geek kid stuff - mind you you can stop him in autoruns and msconfig > start or delete it.
I've been using Avast and Malwarebytes for years. If there is something that Avast can't remove, Malwarebytes gets it. I always recommend MBAM to my friends if they ever get a really bad infection and so far it's always managed to clean up their systems without trouble at all.
Despite it being free, it's really a wonderful little tool to have even if you already have a native antivirus. Or you can just put it on a thumb drive. :)
I have probably posted these before but if not these are worth having a look at - if anyone is interested.

ESET NOD32 Antivirus offers a month free protection or a year protection for $30.
All my systems stick to ESET NOD32 or any of ESET's security software.
I know lots of you use AVG or avast! but when you have the chance get NOD32.
I preffer NOD32 and have had no other antivirus ever.
I have been using Microsoft Security Essentials so far and I can say it's very good indeed. I haven't been facing many problems since the time I have installed it. I could recommend it to anyone. The best part about it is that it is free and updated regularly.
Lol i'm using an old PC what I can say is
Avira slows down the start-up of the computer
Norton Internet Security is the best ! but :S it gives me DPC Latency spikes while surfing
Kasperksy just sucks bad detection (and a huge resource hog)
Avast good ! the code emulation is slowing down programs so if you turn that off it's a great AV and i'm using this one ATM
And :s Microsoft Security Essentials sucks constant 30% CPU and it blocks on me when it try's to remove a virus
Now everone has its own choice :)
