i don,t think so, in my pc i am not using any antivirus because any antivirus may slow down your computer. my pc works very smoothly without antivirus. i don't know how any person's pc getting harmed with viruses. i use my pc from one & half years and without antivirus and i don't think my pc getting slow or some my data is being loose in this period. so think about it and have a nice day.

Probably you are using linux, unix or MAC OS. These OS are somewhat less vulnerable to viruses. But if you are using windows, you definitely should have an antivirus.

I never scan the computer on my own. I just keep the scanning on automatic mode. It then scans my system automatically. It shows warnings only and I never make me a reminder in my head to scan my hard disk.

I scan my computer when I have connected to internet and downloaded something.
I scan my computer when I connected a flash drive which was connected to other PC that i do not know if infected with virus or not.

To put it simply, I only scan my computer every time it is connected to other networks such as internet and media transfers from portable devices, USB drives CD etc.

I never scan my compuer until it run slowly or has a problem. I have installed the antivirus software. When there is a suspicious program, it will warn me to deal with.
my computer works well and I think it is not necessary to scan it frequently.

I have Windows OS in my PC. Compared to other Operating systems like Linux and Mac, the Windows has very good chances to get infected easily if I do not install an updated antivirus.
I have installed AVG free in my PC and I update that on regular basis. I have configured the settings so that it scans my PC thoroughly once in a week. This is an automated task and it runs in the background so I do not have to halt other works for it. Otherwise whenever I get any file from outside, I always check before installing or copying to hard disk. I am really scared with the .exe, .zip, .rar,pen drives and those sites which easily infect computer when they carry virus.
