Good antivirus

Norton is really bad, had for a few days and it just kept blocking stuff I didn't want it to and I know why it did that, but it's easier to just give a warning than to block it straight up. I like Malearebytes a lot.

Norton is NOT GOOD. It legit keeps blocking everything i try to do.

Malwarebytes is very good, before that i was using Microsoft Security Essentials and it was perfect.

I'll be getting Malwarebytes I guess. Hopefully that in combination with adblock should work well.

Malwarebytes an anti-virus ? It's pretty obvious "Malware" not "Virus".
If you're looking for a real and efficient anti-virus, take Bitdefender, it's an excellent one!

I currently use Malwarebytes for Malware protection and avast for my anti-virus. They both work great and I haven't had a problem.

A virus is a piece of code that is capable of copying itself in order to do damage to your computer, including corrupting your system or destroying data. Malware, on the other hand, is an umbrella term that stands for a variety of malicious software, including Trojans, spyware, worms, adware, ransomware, and yes, viruses. So the logic follows: all viruses are malware. Not all malware are viruses. Cappish?

To answer OP's question, BitDefender, MalwareBytes, NOD32 is the most solid ones.
If you are completely retarded and download everything you find, I would go for NOD32.
