AVG Free Edition.
It's very popular, and I strongly recommend it. Just make sure your friend updates it.

Just a question, do you think it's better than Avast! ? 
I though of trying it, but I don't want to waste time... |

I used AVG for a bit, but I think Avast! is the best free one. But AVG is still good if you want.
I'd recommend trying them both incase one virus checker can't find the virus.

Compare the downloads on download.com:
AVG Free Edition downloads: 8,330,914
Avast Home Edition downloads: 3,604,560
Yes, I think AVG Free Edition is better.

They always say having 2 can cause conflict and therefore give you problems, so I'd only reccomend 1, but you could always get 2 if you like, just reminding you of the possible conflict.

Well I can't use avast because Nolton Antivirus is still installed and Nolton won't uninstall because the uninstall isn't there.

RE: Need help with anti virus!
Then try to do a repair?
Or just install even though norton is there.
