What is the best, free way to prevent Viruses on a PC?

[John]

Not looking to spend. But if there are ones that really are better that cost money, i will pay.

I recommend avast ^.^

[Skarner]

AVG/Avast are good

AVG/Avast are good

Lol AVG sucks. The old owners sold the company to a bunch of bad asians.

Avast is really good though.

Just whatever you do, don't even consider getting Norton or Kaspersky. I used to have Kaspersky and it was the biggest memory hog program I've EVER had. And Norton gives you more viruses than destroys/blocks them.

I've been using Norton since day 1 and haven't had a single problem

If you're using Windows, Microsoft Security Essentials.

Just don't look at porn

The best way is not to download fishy stuff.

As much help as the last two were, i'm looking for actually helpful input.

I've always used Microsoft Security Essentials, and most others I know always used AVG.
