All of these are ones that I personally use and all are free.After you install any of them,make sure you update them to get the full affect.

Spybot - Search & Destroy detects and removes spyware, a relatively new kind of threat not yet covered by common anti-virus applications. Spyware silently tracks your surfing behaviour to create a marketing profile for you that is transmitted without your knowledge to the compilers and sold to advertising companies. If you see new toolbars in your Internet Explorer that you haven't intentionally installed, if your browser crashes inexplicably, or if your home page has been "hijacked" (or changed without your knowledge), your computer is most probably infected with spyware. Even if you don't see the symptoms, your computer may be infected, because more and more spyware is emerging. Spybot-S&D is free, so there's no harm giving it a try to see if something has invaded your computer.

Windows OneCare Live does free virus scans without installing or purchasing software. It's found on Live.com
But it is a better idea to buy the software from a trusted company like McAfee or Norton, that way you are constantly protected and the virus definitions are updated frequently

Grisoft AVG is excellent. Have used it for years and it catches viruses very well. I have never had an infection since I started using it.
