I assume your want free right...If you want a free anti-virus I recommend in this order (install only one):

1. AVG Free

a. A simple interface (easier to use than Avast! and Avira)

b. Can detect about 82.82% of viruses

Cons: low virus detection

2. Avast!

a. Real-time protection

b. It has an option to delete a virus once found

c. Can detect about 87.46% of viruses.

Cons: Too many icons and confusing user interface

3. Avira AntiVir

a. It can detect malware better than Avast and AVG

b. It's cute umbrella icon

c. Can detect about 94.26% of viruses

Cons: A very sluggish update

You will also need anti-spyware to prevent those pop-ups and I would recommend getting Ad-aware and Spybot Search and Destroy (they are also free).

If you actually want to pay for protection NOD32 is the best and Kaspersky next. Don't get Norton or McAfee as they slow your computer way down. Good luck!
