    Windows Security Essentials has one of the worst detection rates compared to any free antivirus. In fact it's so bad that it's used as the baseline for AV-Test.org's statistics.

    Kaspersky isn't free.

    ---

    If you want a good means of comparing antiviruses in terms of detection rates, performance hits to your PC etc then just check out http://www.av-test.org/en/home/. On the main page just click the button that says "Home User" and you'll get a list of AV software both free and paid, and how they rate in terms of detection, performance, and usability.

    According to AV-Test, BitDefender is one of your best options.

    I think Avast and AVG are best free Anti-Virus, but I use premium version of the KasperSky internet security, a great tool with many options and control on your system.
