Free anti-virus software advice please

I like Avast pretty much because it's a complete suite, however they only use a trial version, and for day I've been getting this annoying pop-up meesage telling me it will expire. It's a free download like the others and it recognized pretty much al viruses. I think Antivirus should be free these days, I know this companies wants some profits, in that case there are couple of ones like Sytmenec or zenok that add some other features like online backup and they carge fair amounts for that.

AVG and Avira are both free and comparable in quality to Avast. I recently switched from Avast to AVG because I was running into some sort of a problem -Avast stopped working.
