"He put on a couple antivirus software programs" well that could be a problem you only want 1 AV program installed, more than that can cause problems.

Exactly as bignastyid said, two active antivirus programs running at the same time will slow you down big time.

Now if he put avast on there and malwarebytes scan tool that is fine and malwarebytes is not actively running, only avast is.

If you only have one active antivirus software then you may need to go into the application or firewall rules and whitelist your game so that the antivirus will let its data pass through.

What is your system specs.

AVG and Macfee (in fact just Macfee) is bad news in my opinion. BUT your specs are not that great for BF4, what settings are you trying to use? Is it the same on heavily populated servers as lightly populated ones?
