Good for both of you. I am currently using a freeware version of AV products which is Avira AntiVir Classic Edition. Since using this one, I never had problems at all and I am very much satisfied using it. It updates regularly and you can schedule this at your most convenient time. It is very light on resouces and does not eat a lot of memory. It does not slow down your computer system. Its primary function and advantages is to provide protection against viruses, worms, and trojans, protection against dialers and phishing, and detects and delete rootkits. More than 15 million users worldwide trust in the reliable protection of Avira AntiVir. It has gained several awards. The product combines firts-class detection rates and ease of use with a top performance that protects your computer safely. That's it. Have a nice day.
