I was like that too until a few weeks ago when the ad server for a site I visited was hacked. It was able to get through Firefox and give me a fake antivirus program.

Isn't that the definition of a computer virus? That it has to be self replicating.
OP you could look at Microsoft Security Essentials. Not the greatest out there, but it's free, does real time scanning, and is the least naggy one out there. I've stopped recommending AVG because of all the 'We have a new version out, you must upgrade' popups
