I have a new laptop,

Does anyone have a recommendation for an antivirus software?
Is this the right place to ask this?

Thank you,

Seriously,

I thought somebody would post a link and say
here is where you go to learn how to set up a
new computer so that you don't get a virus,
malware etc. Maybe I posted the question in the
wrong place?

Thank you,
