Look at the virus detection rate. Among the free products
Antivir Personal by Avira GmbH is at the top passes AVG and Avast
http://www.filesland.com/companies/AVIRA-GmbH/Avira-AntiVir-Personal-Free-Antivirus.html
There are a few choices when it comes to security, mainly in the AntiVirus department. Some very good, free anti-viruses available to download are:
1) AVG 8 AntiVirus. Easiest interface to use, very fast scanning and doesn’t lag your computer at all. Only has a 76% detection rate, but catches the most harmful of viruses. If you’re a normal home user, you’re not in too much danger of higher level viruses and this is the AV for you:

2) Avast! 4 AntiVirus. Smaller, sleeker skin, average scanning speed, but reports alot of safe files as viruses, so you might need to watch out for that. 78% detection rate, but alot more complicated than most other free AVs. Use this if you are handy with a computer and you know what needs to be scanned:

3) Avira AntiVirus. Simple layout, which even the most basic of users can navigate. Incredibly fast scanning, with a 90% detection rate. Not as easy on the eyes as other AVs, and you need to know what you’re doing to get the more advanced features, but it is definite a candidate:

Personally I use AVG, but only because I go for the easier interface. If you are paranoid about viruses then the only real option is Avira. But if you just want normal protection, then any of the three will do it for you.
For any spyware problems, get SpyBot – Search and Destroy:

And for protecting your computer for malware or tracking cookies, use Ad-Aware 2008 Free Edition:
http://lavasoft.com/products/ad_aware_free.php
All of them are free, as powerful as paid programs, like McAfee and Norton (which only has an 18% detection rate!), and don’t use up as many resources.
Just boot into Safe Mode (Press F8 when turning on the computer) and run full scans.
Hope that helps.
oh you u dont need to erase anything
i use AVG Antivirus 8.0 free edition
its free and the best one i have ever used
here is the link
free.avg.com
good luck bro
have you tried to restore your pc? you can do it in safe mode, this will take you back to a safe time.
once you have done this, i would advice buying ‘spyware doctor’ by ‘pc tools. they are voted the best every year. for aobut $39ish you get live coverage, that menas as soon as a trojan/virus/ wahtever goes on your pc, it gravbs it and stops it.
i have had it for a year an d had no problems at all with trojans etc..
you can find it on pc world magazine site.
but first go into safemode, then when help support comes on the screen, press on restore. it tkaes about ten minutes. but at least you will be clean.
good luck.
Best one around is NOD32 http://eset.com they have earned awards for the past couple years for it. Also that isn’t a virus it is malware and you need a full suite to protect your system which eset offers
