Which is the best antivirus software that has a boot-time scan and works on a 64 bit operating system?


I am currently using an Aspire 5551-A laptop with Windows 7 and tried to run a boot-time scan on the free version of Avast anti-virus. A message appeared saying that this scanner is only currently available on 32 bit operating systems. Is there a boot-time scanner for 64 bit systems? If so, then which is the best antivirus software that has a boot-time scan and works on a 64 bit operating system? I would really appreciate if some can share their reviews about that anti-virus software. Please help. Thanks.
