Go to Microsoft and download Microsoft Security Essentials. it's free. They provide definition updates daily.

Nobody wants your computer to have an illness.

The foregoing assumes you are running a Microsoft OS.

Here is the link.

Be sure to turn on autoupdates so it can update the definitions which are usually around 400 KB.

Looks like they are trying to get back into the security game.

A couple reviews I have read say they need some more interface work before real consideration, but do a good job at the protection level.
