panda antivirus is also a good option https://www.google.com/amp/s/www.pandasecurity.com/en/mediacenter/panda-security/panda-security-the-best-antivirus-protecting-windows-xp/%3famp=1 its been discussed alot on here

I have been using Panda Dome the last weeks and will stay with it. It works without any problems and is really lightweight. The RAM and CPU usage is very low. That's why I recommended it.

The last error-free, XP-compatible version is Comodo Antivirus 12.0.0.6818. The very last version targeting Windows XP seems to be Comodo Antivirus 12.2.2.8012, but it is reported to have some bugs in Windows XP. To be honest, I personally never liked Comodo Antivirus.

@legacyfan Here, my friend, a screenshot of AVG Antivirus running on Windows Vista:

See the software version number? There, it says 18.8.

I want to test Panda Dome, but when I installed it, I got version 21.01.00 instead of 22.00.00. Is this normal? If not, how to update it to version 22.00.00? Thanks

You probably got an older installer. Download the latest one!

Here is the download link of the online installer which automatically downloads Panda Dome 22.00.00 offline installer with the size of 3,142,712 bytes here in Germany: https://repository.pandasecurity.com/Panda/FREEAV/193309/PANDAFREEAV.exe  
@VistaLover and me were offered different sizes of these installers. Maybe, due to our different locations, servers or whatever. All of that was already discussed in this post and the followings:

Here is a download link of Comodo Antivirus 12.0.0.6818: https://web.archive.org/web/20190502052352/http://cdn.download.comodo.com/cis/download/installs/1000/standalone/cispremium_only_installer.exe 
It's an old installer, so it is only available by using the Wayback Machine.
