I know that /g/ generally hates antivirus, but considering that I visit a lot of porn and torrent sites, my antivirus has saved my computer a billion times by blocking incoming trojans, worms, spyware and malware attacks
I use them to check if I am able to sneak past some nasty shit like typically a brazillian attack in an image etc, and see if it detects when I deliver the payload
Not using one on my OpenBSD box. If I need to visit shady stuff I start a VM or use a spare laptop.

They are scams. In the best case they are useless and in the usual case dangerous.
Using non-free software to save you from viruses is insanity. You are installing malware to protect you from malware.
If you "get viruses from porn" you should not be using a computer, simple as that.
I still don't know how it is possible for that to happen.
