Microsoft security essentials, is very easy to use, and it protects you from all types of Nasties. Freeware to anyone with a genuine copy of windows.

Firewalls:
Windows Defender (comes with OS, I don't like it)
FortKnox (this is one I love and recommend)
Spyware:
Spybot S&D
Ad-Aware
Anti-virus:
AVG Free
Avast
BitDefender
What I personally use:
Spybot S&D for daily use, though I remove it when extensively installing things.
FortKnox. Comes highly recommended.
Avast. There are better ones out there, but they're not free. AVG is very processor intensive.
