I'd get HitmanPro.Alert. I believe after the trial of the full version you keep a very good free program. I would add a browser extension in Chrome from one of the AV companies, maybe Avira or Avast--there's probably several to choose from for free. You can also get free online protection by immunization from HostsMan, Spybot, and Spyware Blaster.

I would add LastPass for a password manager.

If you're open to a light AV, you might grab the next giveaway of Advanced System Care Ultimate, which has the Bitdefender engine.

Macrium Reflect is pretty good.

I forget to install Avast Online Safe, which is the only security extension of my browser

it's still pretty easy to install unknown software, even with Smartscreen. You just click on the little link offering more information or something like that, and it lets you past the blocking.
