Hello shive529! I am using nod32 antivirus and it works out well for me. It immediately detects viruses. It's not really that heavy and it automatically updated.

AVG would be the best ever! Try their trial version, it's free for 30 days, or you can download free version, it works fine.

Alwil Avast! 4.6 Home Edition - Venerable Avast! is still free for personal use, and it's a relatively unobtrusive and capable virus stomper that will work well for just about anyone. A new feature adds a web proxy to the mix (which filters all traffic running through it for security risks), and it works will all major web browsers. It also recognizes non-virus threats like spyware and adware.
