    Because no single antiviral program is infallible, you might consider installing stand-alone scanner(s) in addition to whatever real-time scanner you choose. Here are some good choices:

    Emsisoft Emergency Kit

    Sophos Virus Removal Tool
    http://www.majorgeeks.com/files/details/sophos_virus_removal_tool.html

    Malwarebyte's Anti-malware
    http://www.majorgeeks.com/files/details/malwarebytes_anti_malware.html

    SUPERAntiSpyware
    http://www.majorgeeks.com/files/details/superantispyware_free.html

    Hitman Pro

    ClamWin Antivirus

    All have daily viral definition updates and all are free

    Greetings, rabboni.

    The only thing I can add is to suggest that you read and take heed of the excellent advice offered in the following: How to Protect Yourself from Malware. It's a comprehensive and well-written guide for personal computer protection.

    rabboni, moral to the story is, all of these are excellent suggestions and programs. It's always better to have a layer of security, antivirus, anti-malware, anti-spyware. The choice is yours, choose your security to be vigilant and to fit your needs. :)
