Since the word literally means "against (or instead of) Christ", and the Bible foretells not just one antichrist, but many (1 John 2:18, 19; 1 John 2:22; 2 John 7), then anyone denying that Jesus is the Christ.

In my opinion, Antichrist is anyone who uses the tenets of religion for their own personal gain or for violence or discrimination against another group. (e.g. Muslims on 'jihad', fundamentalist Christians causing violence against gays, etc)

Saul of Tarsus (Paul of the Bible) was the original anti-Christ.
His doctrine was anti-Christian and was labeled as such by early Christians. His doctrine is the foundation for the majority of Christian cults, including Catholic, Church of England, Baptist, Lutheran, et al.
The vast majority of self-styled Christians are anti-Christian, or, anti-Christs.
