Free Antivirus program?pc security
Free? Probably AVG and Avast. By the way (referring to 鈥渏ibbarjap鈥?answer above) using 鈥渄etection capabilities鈥?as criteria for finding best AV, probably doesn鈥檛 reflect reality, as softwares which uses aggressive (or too aggressive) heuristic rules would produce most positives (out of which most would be however false as well 鈥?even having nothing against Kasperky itself which seems to be good AV). 鈥淔alse positive鈥?stands for incorrect detection where not-malware program is identified mistakenly as malware.
Free Antivirus program?symantic
AVG or Avast
both are free
AVG works good for me

This site has a good list of free ones. http://www.basicspywaretips.com/getridof...
In my opinion (which is the only one I have!) AVG works best, free or otherwise. It was the only thing that got rid of a kakworm virus my sister sent me; Norton just let it right through. Good luck!
From a recent test at www.virus.gr the top 25 in virus detection capabilities are: ("in the wild" viruses)
