    I believe F Secure is supposed to be pretty good
    I would certainly advise against using AVG

    personally id suggest AVAST or AVIRA free (from filehippo)
    :idea:

    Can't go wrong with F-Secure, has performed quite well in the Antivirus Comparatives tests, and also their free bootable antivirus is no-nonsense and works well.

    If not, Avast or Avira free are both good. I wouldn't use AVG, going from it's performance at the above site.

    Other than that, you'd want to install and update Spybot: Search and Destroy, and run the Immunisations. Also, Malwarebytes Antimalware for routine scans - great piece of software.
