What's your firewall + anti-apyware + anti-virus combination and what do you think of it. Do you think its the best combination.  I'm just trying to get ideas, i kno there are threads like this but not for all three in one. I just got a new laptop and for now i'm using:

windows firewall + windows defender + avg ant-virus

I havent ran a firewall in 9 years and never had trouble yet. A few virus's along the way, nothing to bad. I think there is alot of fear mongering just to sell programs. Not saying someone couldnt F#@& with me, but I dont care if they do. My pc has jack S#!t on it.
I don't get it, why did jack S#!t on it?

I'm "trying" CA Internet Security Suite 2007. My verdict is still out.

They are pretty much giving away that CA Internet Suite. At Tigerdirect.com they always have deals where you get like a DVD player, or USB drive + CA Internet Security Suite for free.

I have switched to NOD32 now because I'm cool like that. cool I thought about going with Kaspersky, but NOD32 has a better real-time scanner and I never really bother to run a scan anyway lol. I also cut my Spyware programs back to just Spybot and Spyware Blaster.
