AVG antivirus
Kaspersky anti virus
The new InnoculateIT virus scan...it has a different name now though
all those work fine with XP, and are free

Hi Doug,
The new InnoculateIT PE's new name is E-Trust, but I am sure it's not a free one.
InnoculateIT PE was also withdrawn from the CAI site prior to the release of WinXP. It does not work in WinXP from what I have read.
Haven't tried Kaspersky. Have you? Any good?
AVG is undergoing some fairly stringent testing with XP at the moment. Hopefully the results will be in shortly. The only problem so far is the update frequency which is being addressed if the recent number of them is anything to go by.
Croc.

Use Norton 2002, it's compatible with XP, uses less system resources than previous versions and scans 30% faster than previous versions, saved me quite a few times.
