I've been using AVG Free for many years without issue. It sometimes seems to run a long time when you boot up but doesn't noticeably affect other running processes. the only problem is that when it upgrades itself, you get prompts to load the full AVG product as a free trial but it is worded as though it is an update to AVG Free so you have to make sure that you don't accidentally get the free trial instead of the free version (it is possible to revert, but they don't make it obvious).

I agree with the other respondent who suggests getting an SSD. I did that in preparation for upgrading to W10 and it has dramatically reduced boot time.
