Try Clamwin antivirus. it's effective, small, portable and
free.

know this has popped up so much and I have decided that there

Avast could have been a great program.
Nod32 was accessible up to a point, it aint now, vipre maybe,
panda antivirus maybe.
Sophos.
To be honest the fact so many lagit programs are being
mistargeted, forcing users like me to have to basically leave
vast parts of the os open to attack is a problem.
Some users have gone so far to exclude their drives from
scanning and that does in deed fix things.
On my new system I am just going to have to exclude my backup
drive from scanning because I just don't trust what windows
defender will do.
As for the rest, I will have to restructure my drive, and
exclude all audio games, all portable apps, all apps, all user
installed programs the only things I will leave with programs in
it are windows and ms programs and my downloads folder and maybe
make a folder for unprocessed files and exclude that.
Basically to use my system securely I will have to exclude
pritty much half my c drive in order to not run into problems.
I may as well not use antivirus alltogether, but I have no
choice, there are just to many false positives to handle.

tried free version of AVG. Setup was
difficult and I was not able to control anything the program
did after installation.
