Kaspersky has had NO reputation for a long time, though the reviews make it look like it has been reworked. If you read the reviews every so often you'll regular turnover in the ranking of the programs.

In the PCMag.com site I see AVG is back up on top. Avast was the leader when I was last looking for a program, and earlier than that, Comodo. I stopped with Comodo because my computer was too tied up with its fussy updates and scans.
