I have the free AVG anti-virus and I have never had a virus since ive had AVG. If you dont want to looseeverything on your computer on the occasions that you can get it to work back-up everything you dont want to loose.
If you cannot install it, try reboot your computer into safe mode and then install it. An easier way is to just restore your system back to an earlier point but you can only do that if you've made some restore points.
