or

* Microsoft Security Essentials

Then use both of the Free Apps below:


* Malwarebytes Anti-Malware Free

One of the better aspects of MSE is the facility to set the amount of system resources scanning occupies. Set it in Settings when you change the default time of 02:00 - that's a. m. - to a time the machine is more likely to be switched on.

Sadly, M$ have yet to master an automatic scan if the set time goes by - it waits a week or so then whinges at you for not scanning.
