This.

MSE is free and brilliant and doesn't automatically come with Windows (which I find commercially suspicious) so install that, and the free version of antimalware is great as a backup.

Most virus scanners are a joke, crippling performance and interfering with things. When I have to fix friends computers, it's often been that two antivirus' they've installed are having a fight.
