Securing computer?

I want to pretty much do a virus search on my computer. I'm a paraniod person and I want to be safe as possible. Hopefully searching through and deleteing viruses will make my computer faster.

So whats a good way to do this? Any good program that can perform good virus scans?

Heres a good thread for you. All software linked is free and some of the best.

For a virus scanner, many people seem to like AVG.
