In terms of free antivirus I would always recommend MSE.

ESET NOD 32 but not happy that just yesterday, I somehow got that "Antispyware soft" virus $hit on my computer and ESET did nothing. It's the one that installs a fake antispyware program on your computer, it constantly blinks and flashes that you have a virus and you need to conduct a scan, and blocks access to many things including your own AV protection, and IE won't connect online anymore.
I got rid of it by following this:
Remove Antispyware Soft, removal instructions
