Ooooooooh.....just stay away from Norton and McAffee. I've been running free programs for years with no issues at all. Currently running Bitdefender, but have also used Panda, AVG and AVAST. Then for spyware/adware it's SpyBot S&D and Malwarebytes or Ad-Aware.
And I think they say you probably don't really need anything more than the default Windows 10 anti-virus and firewall.
For an extra layer of security, create a local (non-admin) account to work/play from.
