Antivirus for XP in Parallels, and Malwarebytes

[maestrotee]

I just got XP SP2 in Parallels and I was wondering what free antivirus program I should get. Is AVG okay or Avast? Will they compromise any of my Mac applications. And, can I run Malwarebytes when in Windows? How does that work in Parallels? Thanks ... please respond.

Don't use Avast....will make Parallels crash. You will end up uninstalling Parallels and reinstalling to get rid of Avast.
