My vote goes to Kaspersky Internet Security. It's usually on sale for $9.99 (from $69.99) at Future Shop on Boxing Day. Picked it up the second time already.

Both Kaspersky and nod32 have worked great for me. So +1 for both.

If you have Shaw as your internet provider you can download Shaw Secure from them for free =/
I've been using it for over a year now and it works great. AND it's free :]
Symantec anti virus is ok too. I used to use that before shaw but sometimes i'd run into some problems with the virus definition updates =s maybe it was just mine. but yeah.
