You can use Kaspersky Internet security 7.0. I use this because this is efective to remove viruses.

Hello ravirai8616561.
No antivirus till now is capable to remove all viruses and that too for free because viruses are made on a daily basis and also no antivirus can embed all virus definition till no and known.
So, better to keep your system virus free. PREVENTION IS BETTER THAN CURE.
But if your system is infected, removing virus manually is not easy but there are some steps you can take:
1) Run any good antivirus program and perform full system scan. atleast it will tell you the name or may be location of virus but as it does not have its definition, or virus is rooted in system files, antivirus can't delete it.
2) Try to search for virus removal tools of that name if it is known and perform scan with it.
3) If problem still persist, open command prompt in administrative mode (type cmd in run and instead of simple enter press ctrl+shift+enter). Using some basic dos prompt commands go to that location and delete the root. If deleted scan pc again with antivirus , now it will repair all infected files.
4) If the above thing does not work, try to the same in safe mode with command prompt (press F8 continuously at BIOS boot time it will open the menu select safe mode with command prompt.). This mode has got highest administrative previlages and will definitely delete the virus file if you know the location.
5) These operations may delete your system files so be careful and if that happens try to repair system with the help of OS CD. Don't format it.
If any more problem ask me in comments.
Happy virus free computer.
Happy MyLotting.

Hi ravi,
I am using Avast for the past 6 years. It is a free one. Where you have to register with a valid email id to get the key for 1 year. So that you can update the antivirus for free. After 1 year agan you can renew the key. So AVAST is the best antivirus which is available free to users.
