this may sound like alot, but, w/ all these programs my computer is faster than a cheata on cocaine...

VIRUS Protection
-AVG free (finds ALOT of stuff macafee doesnt)
-Macafee w/ firewall (just for laughs n giggles, cam w/ my computer)
-Hijack this (does almost nothing, hard to use, again, just for laughs and giggles)

Anti-SPYWARE
-Adaware SE free (finds stuff that microsoft doesn't... and the free ver. is better than the paid)
-Microsoft Anitspywre (finds stuff that Adaware does not)
-Tune Up Utilities (highly recomended, goes through every file and the registry and makes my computer 10x faster)
-Tor & Privoxy & TorCP bundle (No ip adress visable, encrypts my connection to the internet)
-Accelerate (optimizes internet connection speed)

BROWSER
-Firefox (a MUST have... more secure than microsoft IE, and easier to use than opera, the extensions are great... there are so many...)

alot of these programs require a payment... if anyone is interested in them PM, i can tell you the best place to get them:shifty:

I use Trendmicro PC-cillin cuz it rocks all the other anti-viruses faces, and spysweeper


ps greg.. do you post from class very often?

I use a Mac.

...and Linux.

No problems. No extra software needed just to keep my machines 'safe'. Behind a hardware firewall too.

The wife's machine is Windows XP; but she knows how to use it. AVG, Firefox, Thunderbird - no problems.
