Randy recommended AVG to me, several years ago.
I've been using it, and loving it, ever since. Not a resource hog, like Norton, and updates are available every few days.
It's also one of the only ICSA Certified antivirus programs.
Give it a try, but remember to disable or uninstall your present antivirus software.
Available for Windows AND Linux.
Look for the AVG Free Edition link on the left side of the Grisoft page.
