Yes. The top rated free antivirus software offerings are:
1. Avast Home Edition Free Antivirus
I have to crown Avast as the overall best free antivirus for, among other reasons, having excellent virus and spyware detection rates according to antivirus test results from AV-Test.org.
Avast antivirus manages to provide a simple and functional user interface, while also being very customizable and feature complete. The active protection feature monitors seven different ways that a virus could enter your computer, including Web browsing, email, file sharing, and more.
Avast also features scanning on boot up if you choose to do so. That’s something you don’t want to do on every boot as it takes quite a while. However, if you suspect you have been exposed to a virus or spyware it is the best way to detect and remove active infections.
2. Avira Personal Free Antivirus
Avira is another one of the best free antivirus products, but it is not as full featured as Avast. The free version of Avira doesn’t claim to protect against spyware, but I believe there is some crossover between what is defined as a virus and as spyware. If you want to make sure you are covered for spyware you can use something like SuperAntiSpyware which also has a free version.
Avira has an attractive interface, but it needed more tweaking to get things to function the way I wanted than did Avast. According to AV-Test.org Avira rates slightly higher than Avast for virus detection. However, if the spyware tests were run on the free version of Avira the score would be very low since they reserve the antispyware feature for the paid version.
3. AVG Antivirus Free Edition
AVG is the most popular and one of the best free antivirus software products. AVG has a very polished user interface and is easy and comfortable to use. AVG detects both viruses and spyware in the free edition. However, in the test mentioned above the detection rate is a little lower than Avast or Avira.
The main thing that puts AVG last in my choices for best free antivirus is the amount of functionality left out of the free version verses the the paid version of the software. You still get good basic protection, but Avast and Avari cover more of the infection pathways than does AVG.
All three of these best free antivirus choices can be easily installed and uninstalled. You can feel free to try all of them to choose your favorite.
Here’s a list with a few free anti-virus solutions, my favorite is Avast Home Edition. Check it out:
Avast is free and is a good anti virus for free. Not sure what kind of bugs you are talking about but antivirus is not a cure all. Even though it does help in some situations. If you have an error or corrupt file anti virus is not going to do anything for that.
+Avast and AVG antivirus software
Malwarebytes, SuperAntiSpyware, Avast, Avira. Those 4 are my favorites
avira is free, also avast. malwarebytes anti-malware is a good free anti-malware program also.
Computer errors:

Registry problem
You are infected with spyware if:
* You see too much pop-up advertisements.
* Your browser has toolbars that you haven’t installed.
* Your homepage has changed (and you can’t change it back).
* Other settings have changed without your permission.
* Your computer is slow.
To get rid of spyware and keep your computer clean you can use an antispyware or even more.
