Best combination of Antivirus & Antimalware?

[SleathX1]

Hey guys, I've got a quick question here. I've currently got the Licencsed version of Malwarebytes, and I'm looking for an actual antivirus. I've sort-of been running without one for the past while and I was told that's not too healthy. So now I'm looking for the best setup of an active (meaning sketchy sites, although I have healthy common sense) antivirus, in combination with my MBAM that I've been running for about 8 months.

 

My real question is this: Should I go for

1. Bitdefender Free 2015 and my current MBAM, or

2. Microsoft Security Essentials (i've got WIndows 7) and MBAM?

AVG free edition and malwarebytes.

Malwarebytes and Avira free. A year or 2 ago Avira was considered good, doubt it'd be too bad now.

The answer depends on whether you want free anti-virus or willing to pay, one of the best places to check for something like this would be av-test and/or av-compatrives.

 

The short answer:

For free: Panda Free + MBAM

Payed: F-Secure Internet Security 2015 + MBAM

 

I personally use Kaspersky Internet Security, largely because I get it free from my bank.

 

Remember that although an anti-virus, common sense and MalwareBytes will deal with the majority of threats it is always worth using other tools e.g. anti-spyware.
