Which ones have you tried that you didn't like?

 

[nukemaster]

www.free.avg.com
www.avast.com

for starters. They do not have ALL the features of payed versions, but give you a good start. Clearly toy do not want to install more than one.

Thanks for the replies. I've been doing a pile of research, and made a few moves before I saw the posts.
Baseline: Win 7, Chrome, Malwarebytes PRO.
Had a free McAfee from att, but I never trusted it so it's gone. Yesterday I added these:

- Microsoft Security Essentials
- Comodo Firewall
- Spybot Search & Destroy
- SuperAntiSpyware

I was told that it's good to run 3-4 anti-malware. Mal. Pro has ongoing protection. BUT now I'm re-thinking it all. What about Comodo Internet Security + Dragon Browser + NoScript? I understand Chrome's attempt to clone NoScript is a piece of garbage. I'm thinking fewer programs is always better.

OK there you have it. Upgrades, overkill, second guessing, and frustration.
All opinions are welcomed!

You could add Hitman pro; it's a good on-demand scanner, Comodo killswitch or Hackprocess are good to see what application are running.

As addon to Dragon I think you should have VTchromize and TrafficLight.

Since you have the pro version of Malwarebytes you should exclude MSE and vice versa so that you don't get issues.

MSE is not the best solution as AV; it's zeroday protection is not always the best and depends a lot on signature - go to malwaretips and look what members says through personal experience.

Alternatives to CIS (complete pack) is outposts solution and Zonealarms free security suit (kaspersky AV + zonealarm firewall) but you can only update once a day

I agree malwaretips is a good site.
I choose Avast Free + CFW (in free option)
Right now i am using KiS (The only con is system slow)
But it is ok .

Avast and CFW is a solid and popular configuration. I have used it myself and I can confirm that it offers a solid security level. I have Malwarebytes free as the pro version doesn't provide as effecient detection as the free scanner does and hitman pro.

When installing CIS+Avast make sure you chose which sandbox you want to use (having both on might cause issues). Before installing make sure the KIS is completely removed as the remains might cause problems.
