No AV is perfect. You still must use common sense steps such as only downloading from trusted sites, keeping your system up to date, unchecking adware from program installers, etc...
I've only used Windows Defender/Security Essentials since it came out years ago (it was a separate download before they integrated it into the OS) and I have never had any viruses or malware. That said, I am careful about where I obtain files from and use caution on files in email.
