I use NOD32 for my antivirus, it does a great job and uses very little resources, you don't even know it's running.
I use my routers NAT protection as a first defence firewall, and I use zonealarm security suite with the antivirus disabled.
I use zonealarm's antispyware function as my first defence against spyware/adware and I use spyware doctor as a scanner.

A combination of these tools, in my opinion is a great defence.
Of course you need to be careful what you download etc..

I am currently using Norton Antivirus 2005 on my desktop computer along with Zonelabs Zone Alarm Firewall Pro which I did not purchase; I have a software for generating serials so it worked for me .It is working very fine but is using up most of my memory. Norton offers me live updates whenever I connect to the internet so I update virus definations and it is going on fine. If you are using Limewire there are high chances if viruses entering your system but never has my antivirus let me down though I use Limewire so much. Today it caught
3 Trojan Horses
1 CyberWarrior.317
2 Worms
2 War32.system.C
If I did not have Antivirus my comp would be a breedind ground for viruses.
Although I do not use any anti adware or spyware programs you can download Windows Defender which you can find on Google Search . For more queries on this topic you can mail me at rohanramanath@gmail.com ; Dean Solutions4u Enterprises.
Hope You have a safe hosting and browsing.

I use eTrust Internet Security Suite:

EZ AntiVirus
Personal Firewall
PestPatrol Anti-Spyware
AntiSpam

I also have Spyware Doctor, and AOL Spyware Zapper.

There was a time I had Norton Antivirus, but got a virus downloading an update for it - not the best of adverts for their product! I've also used McAfee, but the setup I have now is safest I've known.
