He should get a Mac, then he won't have a problem
 Out the free ones, I am sure Avast, AVG and even Microsoft Security Essentials are much of a muchness and all have their own fans. |

Re: Antivirus software
Avast was my weapon of choice until it got hijacked by the "Windows Total Security" virus.
Avast and MWB couldn't touch it. MSE wiped it out immediately. MSE is anti virus and malware (i.e. includes windows defender), and updates with the standard windows update tool - so its dead easy to use.

Re: Antivirus software
AVAST for me , daily updates , nice and light
Found AVG a bit heavy and essentials i had a problem with, but like Rog says we all have our faves. Antivir is canny as well.

Re: Antivirus software
Norton 360 is pretty good......they have upped their game from being crap a couple of years ago, and are now worth having...
