If you want a free anti-virus I recommend in order of popularity, but please choose the right one for you (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
Avast is very good.

Norton, that's what I have, but eventually you will have some problems like i do now, where everytime I click on a back or forward button or any icon on my desktop once, they think I'm clicking it twice.
AVG:

NEW! LinkScanner® Active Surf-Shield checks web pages for threats at the only time that matters – when you’re about to click that link.
most interent providers such as cox,or media one have a free security suite
AVG is good.
Whatever you use..dont use AVG because its crap.
Personally I used to used Avast but it was very resource hogging and took up at least 20mb even when just idle. Now I use Avira and its much better.
