AVG is fairly good, but the best results are achieved by running weekly manual scans as well. It is even more effective when combined with the zonealarm firewall ( http://free.avg.com/us-en/download-avg-anti-virus-free-edition ).

http://free.avg.com/us-en/download-avg-anti-virus-free-edition Also reasonably good, but more comprehensive protection than Free AVG. Also better when paired with zonealarm.

http://free.avg.com/us-en/download-avg-anti-virus-free-edition The anti-virus and firewall protection of comodo are both free and of good quality.
For assistance with the firewall settings, please contact the help desk or bring your laptop to CIS.
