     I quit using XP when I upgraded to Windows 7. The same will apply when   
   I start using Windows 10, and quit using Windows 7. Again, the ONLY   
   reason I'm upgrading is because of the security issues. That will take a   
   LONG TIME TO FINISH, once the main software is installed.

     I have the IObit Product Suite, which includes:   
      
   1) IObit Malware Fighter -- it has an anti-malware and anti-spyware   
   engine, an anti-ransomware engine, and the "bit defender" engine. It is   
   automatically updated daily. I scan any new downloads with it.   
      
   2) Driver Booster -- it checks and updates all the drivers on the   
   system, to make them up to date.   
      
   3) Smart Defrag -- it defragments and optimizes the hard drive.   
      
   4) Uninstaller -- it removes unwanted programs.   
      
   5) Software Updater -- checks for new versions of installed programs.   
      
   6) Advanced System Care -- several options including:   
      
   A. Startup Optimization -- speeds up boot-up.   
   B. Privacy Sweep -- deletes cookies from the browser.   
   C. Junk File Clean -- deletes junk and temporary files   
   D. Shortcut Fix -- fixes invalid shortcuts.   
   E. Registry Clean -- removes invalid registry entries.   
   F. Spyware Removal -- similar to IObit Malware Fighter.   
   G. Internet Boost -- Speeds up ones internet connection.   
   H. System Optimization -- Speeds up system performance by closing down   
   unneeded applications (user configurable).   
   I. Registry Defrag -- Defragments items in the registry.   
   J. Security Reinforce -- Reduces System weaknesses to prevent hacking.   
   K. Vulnerability Fix -- Security Updates from Microsoft are installed.   
   L. Disk Optimization -- Similar to SmartDefrag.   
      
     With most all of these, you can get a good price to cover 3 computers   
   for one year. Full details are at www.iobit.com   
      
     In the past, for virus scanners, I've used McAfee, F-Prot, CA Internet   
   Security, and Sophos...but I like the IOBit Product suite the best.
