I have found that not all AV programs will stop everything out there.
So I use Avast, Malwarebytes, Super Anti Spyware and CCleaner, (keeps the registry clean) all free, that way things can't slip by the one AV program.
You also MUST keep the AV programs updated (I do it daily) as the dark ones will try anything to FUBAR your computer.

well i have tried
Avira
the free version so far not bad.......ill try the other ones.......was hoping to see boxing day sales lol
im trying to activate the office 365 on the new laptop still shopping........what the heck they have monthly prices or yearly
thought you use to just buy it and had it for ever not just rent the office software ...the crooks.....
would be so nice just to buy a darn computer.....with a paid virus program and office and walk out and just be set....
not this buy more buy more buy more..........dam marketing...lol
like i said i had an old computer......most software was pirate so i didnt care.....trying to be legit this time
