No benchmark graphic charts to compare? Seem pointless to do the roundup if the customers want to compare.

I still love NOD32, especially the new version. I don't want my antivirus to take up a large chunk of resources.

Kaspersky 2009. It's by far the best antivirus I have used and I have used many others including NOD32. This is a poorly written comparison there are no benchmarks to compare and in general it is disorganized and incomplete.

I am surprised about Panda as I have been using it Windows 7 and it has been the best anti virus I have used. And Norton?!? I have only ever found it to be intrusive system intensive and careless.

True that in previous versions Norton was horrible (IMO), but with 2009 they have seriously cut down on system resources and how 'intrusive' it is.
