Some good number of years ago I used AVG free. When I came back from holiday, I had a surprise. A bad one. AVG was not updated for long time (obviously) and couldn't connect to get the latest signatures. So it turned off the entire protection(!!).
Since then I use Comodo.
To protect your coins, just keep small amount at hand and the rest can stay on paper wallets. And if you generate and print 1000 of them, a hacker/virus will hardly be able to keep track...

ClamAV under Linux... +1 I would not trust a single satoshi to Microsoft Windows regardless of the Anti Virus software used. |

You really need to use a decent firewall in addition to antivirus. Comodo firewall is good if you know how to configure it. For antivirus Avira or Avast are good.

That's a pretty good combination, but if you are not happy with it you might wanna take a look at NOD32. |

The best form of peace-of-mind protection is loading your wallets onto an unused USB device, never connected to your machine unless you are transferring coins ~ AKA Offline storage.

These two softwares are good to protect your crypto and proven adequate, as the other one suggested here you might as well try avast. |

Avast? Seriously?
The last few versions are becoming increasingly annoying.
Just have your mass wallets on linux cold storage. Connect every once in a while to recharge your live wallets and be done with it.
