Wel... Norton Antivirus 2005 is quite good.... i'm not sure about the rest though... I have not used an anti-virus program for at least 4 years

and my PC only crashed once, that too because i was editing something in the registry and did something really stupid
I have not suffered from a virus attack ever since i installed XP's SP2

I certainly agree with the ad-aware/spybot combo, both free. I use this in combo with kerio firewall (also free) and norton kept up to date. Sweet as a nut. I also use trend, panda and rav free online virus scanners from time to time as these fine stuff norton and others miss. Also check out hijackthis (google it) a very thorough and free piece of kit that will sort alsorts of dodgey stuff. Check out thescream forums for great security advise
