As a computer nerd who is confident about identifying shady websites or email attachments, I do not use any anti-virus software. All of my important files are backed up, and I know how to reinstall an OS. I'm sure I can probably be tricked eventually, but if I am, my over-confidence will result in me ignoring any security warnings from anti-virus software, so it won't help.
