Here is an excellent free anitvirus from AOL, Active Virus Shield. Powered by Karpersky of Russia, rated #1 in the world for virus detection. AOL, will only ask you for your email so they can send you your free key good for one year. After one year just ask for a new key.
You will get auto updates every hour on the hour, plus excellent background scanner that really works in real time.

I have used AVG Anti Virus, Zone Alarm Firewall, Spy-bot Search and Destroy and Ad Aware both spyware killers for years. They are all free for personal use and I have had no trouble with Viruses Trojans etc. AVG does not slow the system down as much as some other products and Zone Alarm allows a lot of personal configuration unlike the Windows Firewall. They can all be downloaded from the following link. http://www.computeractive.co.uk/ On the home page select downloads and then the appropriate category.I also use Windows Defender from the Microsoft site. It is safe to use two anti-spy products but never use more than one A/V as it can cause conflicts. You should run A/V and anti spy weekly. Make sure you remove your old antivirus before installing AVG. Hope this helps.
