as mentioned before in this thread
ad-aware + spybot (these look for bit different stuff so its good to have both) other browser than IE.. firefox or opera are good choices antivirus program.. one good is Antivir firewall... Sygate personall firewall is good keep those updated too along windows itself depending how much you know about computers... also EasyCleaner is good addition but remember not to use "dublicates" function if you are VERY scary about security (or just want play safe for sure).. then peerguardian is nice one along all above, even it can block some sites that really dont threat you, when you run that program it even blocks ads from yahoo, msn, aim.. -------------------- |
