Avast! 4 home edition

If you need a simple solution, try mine. I try to give advise on things that have happened to my PC. Changes in registry can be FATAL! Glad to have a chance to help you.

A couple of excellent antivirus utilities are AVG and AntiVir.

Clam antivirus.

It's an open source project that's pretty damned good. I use it on my Linux mail server to catch the nasties before they get to the users, and I have it on one of my windows workstations as well.

It comes with an auto-updater called Freshclam.

God only knows what they were thinking when they named it.
