Need good, inexpensive anti-virus program for Windows Vista Business for Latitude laptop

I have installed a couple of free anti-virus programs (AVG, and some other one) and had trouble getting online when they were installed,, had to un-install them and everything seemed fine after that. Dell reps are of no help, none of them are familiar with Vista and Im not sure why they put Vista Business on my computer!!! Where can I go online, what do I click on,, or what can I buy at the store thats not super-expensive?? Thanks

Hi KrisNAz, and welcome to the forum:

You should only have one anti-virus installed in real-time on your computer. Installing more than one can lead to conflicts, degrade your security, and cause problems such as you described.

On the other hand, I hope you are not online now with no anti-virus running in the background! That is a prescription for disaster.

You can read my recommendations for AVs, both paid and free versions, here:

If you have any questions, don't hesitate to ask. But do get an AV installed ASAP.
