How long does it take to virus scan your PC and how many files/GB (used) do you have?

...and which product do you use?

Update:

You guys kidding me? My AVG free takes about 5 hours to scan about 700,000 files (approx 30GB).

    I just ran a virus scan two days ago. I have 80/160GB used on my computer, I scanned with AVG and it took 20 hours to do. I don't know if that's normal or not because when I get a virus I usually see that the virus protector sees it and I manually remove it myself, without scanning. I like the practice of doing it. it helps with my career.
