For no frills, very basic and simple FREE protection,
Microsoft Security Essentials and your built in Windows Firewall.
Windows Defender for Windows 8 and Windows RT provides the
same level of protection against malware as Microsoft Security
Essentials. You can't use Microsoft Security Essentials with
Windows 8, but you don't need to — Windows Defender is
already included and ready to go. But if you’re looking to
protect a PC with an older version of Windows, you can
use Microsoft Security Essentials to help guard against viruses,
spyware, and other malicious software. It provides free*
real-time protection for your home or small business PCs.
Download Microsoft Security Essentials HERE!
After installing one of
the above, you should then run:
Windows Update
Windows Disk Cleanup
Windows DeFrag (Windows 8 is automatic)
Here is our
list of other preferred utilities:
CCleaner-very powerful registry and free
space utility

MYDefrag (run manually) defrag utility

PRO version is even better!
