I've been using Avast for a long time, and I like it.  It's light weight and
doesn't bog the computer down.  Keep in mind you only want one anti-virus
app running at the same time.  Because they can interfere with and corrupt
each other, unlike anti-spyware apps.

Also, a full license of malware-bytes is worth the money.  It will run in
the background and actively defend against spyware and whatnot.  It's always
good to have a couple spy ware removal apps installed and updated, that way
if you do get infected they are ready to scan.
