Norton's security suit does it all although it costs a bit more then the others.

It is good. I used to have Avast in my Windows 7. Avira does not work on W 7.

Node 32 is another excellent light weight AV i have used. fantastic for laptop users and so is Avast.
the only problem with Node32 is it lacks boot time scan which is very usefull as many viruses come into action once OS is loaded.
Also Node32 is Paid but you can get serial keys to stay updated. PM me for that
