    Kaspersky is the best company: since decades they have only top positions at various tests and also good performance. Or Bitdefender, but Avast is also Ok. But never ever Norton, or the crappy Microsoft solutions.

    Press F1 for help or google it. Greetings from Germany

        Yes - check on Flipkart, Infibeam, Amazon India, etc. Also available in shops - check the computer supplies shop near your place.

            Simply request a new license. There'll be a button to do so if you click on the popup. Avast is available for free, but you will have to renew the license each year. Takes about five minutes time.

              Thank you. But Avast is not a good one. Not worth to buy. That is why I am looking for an another one.

                I second Richard's suggestion of MSE and would add running Malwarebytes(the free version) once a week for peace of mind.

                  Avast free and then behave yourself on the 'net. Remember as is in life, there is NO such thing as internet security.

                            All my Windowses began to work way better when I decided to avoid to install any kind of antivirus. On the new PCs it's the very first thing I remove. I believe it's 10+ years I don't use an antivirus and my PCs work as a charm! I only keep my firewall on...

                                Hmm but, I feel my PC is full of Viruses. Even If I delete those (Using Avast anti virus). After some days it will get slow again. So I thought to get an anti virus :)

                                  I don't know what you mean about "viruses". My colleagues PCs have antiviruses which claim for supposed "viruses" on files they create by themselves. Learn to inspect the Windows register and avoid to click-'n-run what you receive by e-mail: you'll have a faster PC just because the major slowing app is the Antivirus!

                                    Please don't do this! You absolutely need anti-virus! More info here - http://security.stackexchange.com/q/36754/6838[^] tl:dr If you don't protect your machine it may end up attacking mine

                                      My system is taking much time to load the softwares, for example browsers, paint, word, excel , visual studio etc... so i thought it is because of viruses.

                                          Thank you. I have one doubt. My windows is not genuine. Is that a problem for that?

                                          Shhhh. Not so loud. Never post anything like that on public forums and, more importantly, ... ALWAYS use genuine software.
