i would personally recommend AVG. been using it for years, hasnt lagged up my pc one bit. its free to download, and is probably one of the most popular anti virus programs used by windows users.

Exactly what he says! I run all 3 on mine and aint had a virus for nearly 3 years. System Mechanic will help with the running of the PC or laptop too.
Easy as! Avast is popular as well.

I agree. I use Avast on my laptop at home. Nice, free and simple. Actually works as well. Not had any problems since using it.

Memo to folks using Symbian phones with net access, get Kaspersky AV software for it, there are shitloads of viruses out there bricking your nice shiny pieces of kit! Mate bricked his at work with a virus.
Ive got the Kaspersky, 16 quid for the year!
Sweet
