I use Avira Free, it's much better at actually finding nasties, but there is the downside of a daily pop-up ad when it updates. I can live with that, but it might annoy you more.
I don't hate macs either, I just don't like that they went from 'decent, stable computers for designers' to 'shiny expensive hype toys for easily distracted kids'
The hating will no doubt die down once the hype stops.
