Download it, install it and run a scan.

X2, I tell friends to load it and run a scan and they typically find two or three hundred pieces of malware.

FWIW - I downloaded and ran Malwarebytes on my Windows 8.1/64 bit laptop which has only had McAfee's trial anti-virus software on it which expired over a year ago............Malwarebytes detected zero threats.

Guess credit goes to Windows 8.

Try Bitdefender or http://usa.kaspersky.com/downloads/f...CID=INT1676497

Some larger organizations will provide free virus protection software to their employees. I can get Norton's or McAfee's free, but I have picked up viruses with both companies. Windows is the most targeted OS, so don't expect that you are virus free.

Rare that I got infected on Mac OS in the past.
