10bit Security 360
I'm using it, it's free, and does quite a lot.
The best thing is, it does a good/fast scan, and has realtime protection.

If you have AVG you can't have it unless you stop AVG or replace it.
It does the same as AVG, whether it is any better or not is another mater.
No Anti-Virus is foolproof, so stick to what you know, unless you really want to change.
SpywareBlaster is one you should have. It will block things that are nasty loading from bad sites and even stop you going to some bad sites. Only thing with the free version is you need to manually update it. You also need to manually turn on all the protection, but it is only a couple of clicks of the mouse so it is not a problem. |

It's not an antivirus, it complements any antivirus.
But I do have to say AVG, is a very crap antivirus to use.
It gets corrupted very easily, so I wouldn't use it at all...
One of the best, if Not the best is Avast.
It's free, and you can install it from here...
http://www.filehippo.com/download_avast_antivirus/
10bit security, has an option, to scan for any missing security patches.
It does everything for you, if it finds anything, so you don't need to worry.
Anything that will do this for you, is something worth getting.
