    If you need an anti-virus, download AVG 8 Anti-virus:
    http://www.free.grisoft.com

    And for spyware, get SpyBot – Search and Destroy:
    http://www.safer-networking.org/en/mirrors/index.html

    Both are free, as powerful as paid programs, such as Norton and McAfee, and don’t use up as many resources.

    Good Luck.

    Kaspersky antivirus is one of the best antivirus out there
    Refer this

    And i definitely feel there is no need of internet security suite
    Kaspersky provides protection from anti-virus and anti-spywares and for intrusion and firewall purpose use
    Comodo personal firewall,its free and really superb
    Download it from here

    Good Luck

    If you want opensource try Clamwin, http://www.clamwin.com/.
    As long as you are running a decent antivirus and a firewall, internet security software is useless. Just alot of schlock for people that don’t realize they can protect themselves with free programming that is alot less intrusive.
