Try anti vir http://www.free-av.com
Avast, AVG and Anti-vir are genuinely free products, not just trial versions and without exception are superior to Norton and McAfee and tie up less of the PCs resources.
I personally would not dream of purchasing an anti-virus programme.
You will also need a firewall, again freely available are Zone Alarm, Kerio and Comodo whilst anti-spyware can be taken care of by Adaware and Microsofts own offering Defender.
Ethel can give you a link through to all of these programmes if you ask her nicely.
