How do I download McAfee antivirus from the internet to my computer without getting a virus in the p

I just reformatted this computer because of a virus. Now I need to download antivirus software from the internet to protect it. I do not want to download any viruses in the process of trying to protect it. I heard to use the Windows firewall but don't know how or what to do. Are there alternatives? If so what and how do I do this?

I have the same service with McAfee. Whenever I need to download it, I goto the comcast.net site to re-download it. I have never had a problem. Your windows firewall will work until you get McAfee all setup. No need to turn it off, unless you uninstall McAfee.
