I understand your problem I suggest avast antivirus. It is free and it is good also.
For you registry problems , spyware,adware
Download "Advanced Windows Care"
Here is the link for that
http://download.cnet.com/Advanced-WindowsCare-Personal/3000-2086_4-10783002.html
These two softwares will keep your pc healthy and fast.
Hope ! it works
i tried avg before and it doesn’t always remove everything, try spybot search and destroy and click check for problems and immunize.
Do this on-line scan first : http://www.bitdefender.com/scan8/ie.html
only if you might be worried that you could be infected now.
then go and get avast for full time protection,
you can not get a better anti virus system for free.
it has many features you will have to pay for in other systems.
http://www.avast.com/eng/avast_4_home.html
don’t forget to register or you will only have it for 60 days
by registering you will get a licence for a full year.
just re-register at the end of the year to get another one year licence.
if you feel you would be even safer with a software firewall
then
try this one it’s also free and it has no conflicts with avast

if you dont like the look of avast then try Avira
http://www.free-av.com/en/download/1/avira_antivir_personal__free_antivirus.html
you can also run Advanced SystemCare Free : http://download.cnet.com/Advanced-SystemCare-Free/3000-2086_4-10407614.html?part=dl-6271865&subj=dl&tag=button

Also, you are kind of pushy and rude for someone who is asking questions. That is, of course, your right, but someone here would easily be offended, and send you a link that will make your problems worse instead of better.
It depends on your system configuration.
if you have good pc(ram,processor) you must go for total security software. it can be by Norton i.e norton-360(oops not free) or bit defender total security. They have reliable protection.
If you are running out of money, close your eyes and just go for Avira. Its reliable and free too and has the ability to work well in slower systems too.

AVG, avast home edition, malwarebytes anti-malware, super antispyware, avira personal edition.
get AVG – Free Edition
also for additional support get Temp File Cleaner from cnet .com
it clears all waste and temp files and will increase gigs of space on your comp
That’s relatively easy question…
Anti-virus :
♣ Avira
♣ Avast!
Avira has the best detection rate among all anti-virus program, its fast, doesn’t slow down your computer, great for scanning files / folders / drives, reliable removal, easy to use and configure… Generally, if you are downloading a lot / torrent / p2p / web Avira is the choice for you.
But if you aren’t as heavy downloader, then rather pick Avast!. Avast! has really advanced protection on the net ( better protection when surfing ), it will find bad scripts in malicious websites and block connection with the site. Its detection rate is worse than Avira’s, if you ask me it has awfully complicated main panel and i think it generates a LOT of false positives, basically for each keygen and crack.
So :
Heavy downloaders : pick Avira
Heavy surfers : pick Avast!

Anti-spyware :
♣ SUPERAntiSpyware
♣ Malwarebytes Anti-Malware
♣ Spyware Terminator
SUPER and Malwarebytes are only scanners, free version has no real-time protection, but they are very effective when scanning and you can install them both, or all 3 of them, without any fear they will interfere each other.
Tutorial for SUPER : http://www.globehex.com/forum/index.php?showtopic=242
Tutorial & review on Malwarebytes : http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bP49L6HtgNQ&hd=1
Spyware Terminator is special, because its one of the rare if not the only anti-sypware tool that also offers 100% real-time protection and its providing it free of charge. I definitely suggest you to install it and use it as your primary anti-spyware protector.
If you need removers, i can also mention HijackThis… Its able to recognize and remove malicious registry entries, pretty helpful for final cleaning.

Firewall :
♣ ZoneAlarm Free
♣ Comodo Internet Security
ZoneAlarm is totally basic firewall, much better than Windows firewall tho, offers program control and its not complicated, excellent choice for a novice user or user who doesn’t want to deal with all the settings.
Comodo is more advanced, rated as one of the best firewall, offers some complex protection which you have to configure… Generally not advised for novice user, but great for everyone who wants to know more and be protected real good.
All those can be downloaded through :

Hope it helped.
