    It depends on which OS you're using. I always recommend MicroSoft Security Essentials but this won't run on XP and Vista and it probably won't run on Windows 7 in a few days. Windows 10 has its own AV called Windows Defender.

      Only one AV should be enabled on a computer. More than that cause all kinds of problems. That is all I use on all my computers.
