About 80% of NOD32 is written in assembly; this means that the program runs insanely fast and uses only a few megabytes of RAM. It's also the least "obtrusive" of all the anti-virus software I've used, while still providing amazing "always on" virus scanning. And so far, I've haven't had it cause any problems or conflicts with any other software in either XP or Vista.
The only downside to NOD32 is that the user interface can be difficult to use at first. But after using it for a few days, it becomes no different than any other virus scanner.

"difficult to use at first", any ideas on how to get it installed past the BSOD?

and yes I did try removing all traces of other security software and from the registry etc and turning off the windows firewall, still saw a lot of blue.
