No AV software is 100% secure. A couple of golden rules:
Backup. At least make sure your own files are frequently backed up. Ideally have images of your entire HDD available so you can easily revert after an infection. Good backup will also protect you against fire, flood, pestilence and HDD failure.
Vigilance. The AV software should be your last line of defence, not your first. Be careful where you browse, keep a regular eye on your bank and card accounts.
I use Avast free. I would be equally happy with MSE.
