Re: HELP!! Need an anti-virus

Microsoft Security Essentials is a decent and free AV and spyware scanner. It's what I use here.

Re: HELP!! Need an anti-virus

The TrendMicro online scan is fantastic if you suspect your antivirus has been compromised.

Otherwise there is no beating Windows Essentials, a lot of antivirus companies are complaining that Microsoft has an unfair advantage as they're integrating the functionality of the antivirus into Windows.
