I'd recommend
http://www.nod32.com
It's not free.
It's winning legit awards left right and centre, it's main focus is
anti-virus but it has anti-spyware, and harmful files detection, as well
as
trojan detection and clearance.
You can download a free trial of it.
Disable your anti-virus before running another anti-virus program from
starting up when your computer boots.
turn the graphics mode off in NOD32 and it will read more comfortable
with
JFW.
