5.Avira Free Antivirus
The free version of Avira misses some of the components featured in the full suite, but if you’re only interested in standard protection then it’s worth taking a look. Avira Free Antivirus comes with real-time protection, firewall and web protection, on the other hand there is no tech support for this version so you’re pretty much on your own if you run into problems with it. Browser Safety and Online Essentials can also be downloaded for free.

Avast has been around for more than 25 years now, and is considered one of the most trusted antivirus software out there.

There is a problem however, avast! has been known for blocking or deleting false positives. These can sometimes come in the form of cracks, keygens and the like, so take care when downloading files of those types while the antivirus is enabled.
