Information Needed
I am helping a friend setup their computer that has been in use for some time now. They are in need of a good antivirus.....So what is a good one for someone that don't know much about a computer?
Thanks

AVG Free is a good one. auto updates, and auto schedule.
Plus it is free, and it is not bloatware.

I prefer Norton AV, dead easy to use and 1 years free subscription when you buy the product. I know a lot of people slate Symantec product's but it's what i advise all my new customers to use.

Yes, I've been using Norton AV since version 1.0 (DOS!), never had anything it couldn't handle, McAfee would be a close second choice though...
