The best anti-virus is ESET NOD32 then Kaspersky, but they are not free. If you want a free anti-virus I recommend these programs (install only one):
1. AVG Free
a. A simple interface (easier to use than Avast! and Avira)
b. Can detect about 82.82% of viruses
Cons: low virus detection
2. Avast!
a. Real-time protection
b. It has an option to delete a virus once found
c. Can detect about 87.46% of viruses.
Cons: Too many icons and confusing user interface
3. Avira AntiVir
a. It can detect malware better than Avast and AVG
b. It’s cute umbrella icon
c. Can detect about 94.26% of viruses
Cons: A very sluggish update
I only recommend buying NOD32 (advanced users) or Kaspersky. It has been proven these products are better than the best sellers (Norton and McAfee):

For anti-spyware and I would recommend getting Ad-aware and Spybot Search and Destroy (they are also free).
I left AVG as part of my response for comparison against other free anti-virus products.

Spybot

Avast and Spybot S&D are a good combo.
ZoneAlarm has a free firewall.
September 11th, 2010 at 7:27 am
I’ve been using Avira, Spybot, Ad-aware and CCleaner several years professionally and personally.
You can find and install them by searching for those program names on http://www.download.com .

avg is very good
usually antivirus and antispyware are two different streams of products
try adaware , spybot trend
be aware that there are lookalike names to real antispyware products that are spyware in themselves
stay away from norton at all costs
Run a number of antispyware products
http://www.download.com/3120-20_4-0.html?tg=dl-20&qt=adaware&tag=srch
do the updates
They all find different parasites

MACAFEE or Norton are the best you can buy. You can sometimes get them half price at Argos.
September 11th, 2010 at 9:09 am
mcafee is a good one – it can be downloaded or bought from pcworld and installed on disc
September 11th, 2010 at 9:16 am
to get the better ones you have to pay for them most of the time but the ones i have are good but to get the better version of it you gotta pay.
anti-virus software- http://www.free-av.com or http://free.grisoft.com

Norton, in my opinion is by far the best iv had… i got viruses with all otheres i have used…. They also have a 24hr online chat helpline if u need help or have any questions…..

Depending on where you get your reviews, Kaspersky and NOD32 are #1 & 2, with NOD32 being preferred by techs, but Kaspersky given the ‘nod’ (no pun intended) for being more user friendly.
Kaspersky offers a 30 free trial too:

For antispyware, the best free on-demand scanner is Superantispyware:

And the best free full-time spyware protection is Comodo’s BOClean:

Of course, you’d better use all the best for your protection, that’s why you should try:
– Antivir: it’s a free anti virus program which was recommended by a professional
– Agnitum Outpost Firewall: http://agnitum.com/ – that’s to avoid any pop-ups
– True Sword: http://www.securitystronghold.com/true_sword.html
Here are the reasons:
* This one can fix over quarter of a million malicious problems
* It’s fast, especially with Windows XP
* That will never delete the file your system needs for proper work, while the other programs remove everything they found as a threat
* This program will NEVER piss you off with useless informational boxes.
* You can always ask for a professional halp while using it
– And, of course, don’t use IE, because it has a lot of security holes, making it less safe than other browsers.
Good Luck!!!
