AVG Virus Scanner is really the best anti virus program we have come across and it is FREE. The other two big virus scanners are Norton and McAfee and they are not free. These two programs use a lot of your computer resources and even though they help in protecting you against viruses, they make your computer slow. AVG virus scanner runs in the background and barely uses your computers resources. There is a paid version of the free anti virus scanner but the free version gives you great protection. AVG virus scanner basically runs by itself and we'll show you how to use it and give you a link to the AVG Virus Download.
