AVG is much lighter in terms of using system resources and far less intrusive and best of all, its totally free. I've used AVG for years and I can't complain.
Another AV worth noting is Nod32 which you will have to pay for but offers very effective and comprehensive system protection.
Thing is with the free ones you wouldnt know if you had a virus or not because it doesnt pick all of them up !
I ran Nod32 on a machine at work that was using a totally up to date Sophos client and it picked up half a dozen viruses and managed to clean them all.
