    All I use is avg 8.5 free, never let me down.

    My system
    windows xp

    1. zone alarm firewall
    2. avg 8.5 free antivirus
    3. firefox 3.5 browser
    4. returnil (free) I enable this program anytime I'm on the internet.

    That is all I use, no bloated antispyware software, or bloated all-in-one software. Nothing(virus/spyware/trojan/rootkit) has ever defeated my basic free security system. And my internet is as fast as ever, no slowdown.
