    You missed MSE (Microsoft Security Essentials) which is free, good, and very widely used.

        MSE on Win7 machine but most browsing is done in an Ubuntu VM. Anything happens and I just bin it and start afresh.

                  Two of those accolades are correct.

                  Good luck protecting your machine with that!
