I used to run AVG free on my laptops but pretty much stick with Avira now. Every now and then I just go through the top free anti-virus reviews and make sure Avira keeps up to speed with its quality. And, when I decide it's time to do full system sweeps, I'll do complete scans with Avira, Malware Bytes, and CCleaner.
Edit: Forgot to mention that with Chrome I run ad-blockers alongside Web of Truth. Handy little extension that, if a website is sketchy or dangerous, it will block you from entering and ask you first if you're sure you want to. Over the past couple years I've used it, I've only run across maybe a handful of sites where the rating was off and I knew the site as being trustworthy.
