I will suggest Avira Free Antivirus 12. It merges quick scan with more than the usual protection for a complete security combination.

Installation:

Download Avira. The version 12 presents a two-click installation process. This process is part of the "less is more" scheme, wherein it gives a consistent level of protection like before without issues.  The other click will direct you to the Ask.com search engine and toolbar. The Avira's WebGuard function is powered by the Ask.com and is included on the toolbar. You will also be asked to make the Ask.com as your default search engine. When the installation is done, Avira will perform a quick scan which will take about 1 minute and 25 seconds to complete.
