best anti-virus program

I have been using Avast for a while - I really like it. Works on my Android phone too.

I use dr. Web and its about even with Avast as far as features.

i've always used lookout mobile security. it also has a "mobile locator" so if you lose it you can still find it..but i assume that won't work on a wifi tablet.

I use Lookout on my Android devices.

After having used lookout and a few others i can attest that Avast is wonderful. Can install the locator/wiper as a system app making it less likely the theif will get around it. Tons of great features.

Though it's a German website, but the test is the most current I can find from 3rd mar 2012:

http://www.chip.de/artikel/Android-Virenscanner-Test-von-41-Gratis-und-Bezahl-Apps_54893891.html
41 scanners were tested.

Here are the best with >90% detection rate:

• avast! Mobile Security
• Dr.Web anti-virus Light
• F-Secure Mobile Security
• IKARUS mobile.security LITE
• Lookout Security & Antivirus
• Kaspersky Mobile Security (Lite)
• Zoner AntiVirus Free

And here the losers with 0% detection rate:

• Android Antivirus
• Android DefendeR
• LabMSF Antivirus beta
• MobileBot Antivirus
• MT Antivirus
• MYAndroid Protection Antivirus

I've been using Norton Security on my TF300 and so far I like it.

There is a free and paid version.

Haven't upgraded to the paid version yet, the free offers everything I need so far.
