AVAST

There's no such thing as truely free anti-virus and malware software. All of them will either have additional options that require purchase or require a subscription to get updates.

However, AVG and Malwarebytes are the best free basic use programs I've encountered to date. They both allow full system, single file, and group file scans and also provide full quarantine and infection removal. They also both update their definition files for free so you're protection is always up to date. AVG also offers basic web surfing protection if you're a lazy/unsafe web surfer/file downloader. You'll need to use them in conjunction (one after the other) since they both check for different things.

it simple
change your log on password
