Looking in the Virtual Machines sticky would anyone recommend a certain one to install or maybe just a fresh Windows 7? I am fairly new to this and learning as a hobby my only concern is Virtual Machine being infected spreading to hard drives or main computer. Thank you

Oracle VirtualBox is free and I think it is best for start as it very friendly and support all popular OS. Don't use VBox shared folders, any shared networking, VBox Hardware 3D Acceleration (OpenGL, DX) and you are safe.
