Type in Yahoo search or Google search
Anti Virus program.
In Google you have a choice of 1,86,00000web sites !
In Yahoo about 25,800,000 .
The most popular is usually listed within the first 1-10.
You can normally get what you want within the first 20 web sites ..
Nobody can scan all the web pages on any subject/key word

There are different programs that will help you keep your computer safe, such as one that was already suggested, which was AVG. It's a free antivirus program that you can use to scan your computer for viruses. Here's the link again.

Also, you may want to look into an antispyware utility, just incase you have some spyware on your system. A free one is AdAware and is made by LavaSoft.

http://www.download.com/
You can find a lot of anti-viruses there (there are free ones) and other softwares like anti-spywares, video converters, firewalls, etc. If your finding an anti-virus, the best would be AVG or Avast.

Go to www.download.com then go to antivirus in your left menu then a list will appear there will be a few scroll boxes select your OS and in license select free when the list is refreshed go to cnet editors pic under the scroll box select the one you prefer. i strongly recommend AVG free edition for this one you can go to this link www.grisoft.com select products and at bottom of the page you will find avg free edition. Also you should download an spyware i recommend spybot S&D or spyware terminator there are both free.

You need Full time (active) virus protection and full time spyware protection.

All the following programs are free.

Install only one. All are excellent.
