Another vote for AVG for Antivirus. For years I used to have hav Norton's Internet Security and even paid the subscription for the updates because I figured a 'purchased' product had to be better than a free one.

Then I got tired of it's harrasing messages when it would get close to resubscribe time and did some research. Some of the free companies release virus updates and live fixes faster than the big name $ choices.

I now use AVG and ZoneAlarm and I'm very happy. I used to work with cooperate sized firewalls a bit and I'm happy with what ZoneAlarm does for me on my home PC.

I use various spyware products. Seems no one product finds everything. I suggest running 2 or even three of the freeby ones on a rotational basis or use a scheduling program to run them and not forget.
