I've always thought whether I need to run AV software or not.
I mean... my computer is plugged into my wireless router, which has two firewalls in it.
I run an avast! scan on anything I download but I rarely run the full system scan.
My mentality is similar. I've got a router (wireless), too, and I never run full scans with avast. The only time I ever need it is on the internet. And if comes up with something (such as an infected or suspicious pop-up's IP, etc.), it just pops up a box and let's me disconnect that site's connection. That is by far what I use and love the most about avast. It doesn't wait until you are infected before it tells you you have a virus/spyware/malware/other intrusion.
