I use Symantec AntiVirus, AdAware, and Spybot Search and Destroy for cleaning my machine, and download new definitions (updates) twice a week, and keep the software up-to-date. Eudora is my mailer, even thought Outlock comes with the OS. All this and a firewall as well. Just for home. I have not as yet graduated to a full DMZ with choke routers and Spam Assassin etc, but I'm thinking of it.........
