Microsoft security essentials is an antimalware package from Microsoft.  It 
meets one of your requirements, that being free, but whether it's actually good 
is a matter of debate and it depends on how you spin the issue.  It's failed 
some antivirus tests lately and so I have difficulty recommending it.  Having 
said that, I've used it and I haven't gotten infested with any malware as of 
right now.  Then again, I'm a particularly cautious user and I do a few things 
to lower my risk, such as tweeking security settings on my router, using a 
script blocker and an ad blocker, being cautious about opening attachments, 
etc.  those practices certainly don't guarantee any immunity but, as I said, 
I've never been hit with malware, at least not so far.
