Hi Sonja,
Next time you send a message, please specify which operative system you have
and give more details about your system, anyhow here is some explainations:
The password is like a key to a door, and the antivirus is like a dog that
is guarding your appartment, but they can't help you if your windows have
lots of hole that let a thief to enter. Software have always bugs and
security holes. Viruses and worms can use those holes to enter and disable
your antivirus. To get better security you need what Microsoft call defend in
depth, that means many layers of defence, in english it means to update your
system with latest patches, install a firewall, don't download code from
untrusted sites and use an antivirus program :)
U can find more about securing your computer by visiting the link below:

If U aren't satisfied with the answer please let me know.
Best regards
