If you have roadrunner by Time Warner cable there is a free antivirus called EZ Trust and for free on there home page, Im not sure if you can get it without being a customer but u can try. I used to have Norton and now I have EZ Trust and I haven't had any problems.

Although not as feature rich, most the free products do a pretty good job at basic prevention, detection, and removal. In fact because these programs do not use a bloated add on security center and complicated live update programs, you will probably find that your computer performs better with one of these products, than it does with Norton installed.
AVG has a good personal use Anti-Virus product available at: http://free.grisoft.com
Avast Antivirus, also for non-commercial use is available at: http://www.avast.com/eng/avast_4_home.html
Avira AntiVir Personal Edition is also available for download at http://www.free-av.com , I have not used this a lot and would welcome other comments on it.
The above products include active background scanning modules!
Bitdefender has an excellent scanner and removal tool but does not have any active background protection in the free version that is available at: http://www.bitdefender.com/site/Main/view/Download-Free-Products.html

AVG free anti-virus. They also have a good free anti spy-ware program.
Comodo anti-virus They also have an excellent free firewall program.
