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.

I've used all of those at various times.  Back when the little lady had Comcast I got the free copy of Norton from her account, and honestly found it worked better overall than any of the freebies.  As such I've stuck with it.  The reason I purchased it is we now have Verizon (which offers nothing) and we cannot move that active free copy from the other PC, and this offers licenses for her desktop and laptop as well.
