My pc at home is getting old and I realize I need to buy a new one. It has 256 mb ram, 7 gb hard drive, windows 2000, 466 mhz processor. I have tried adding a lot of software to it but that seems to have slowed it down considerably. I bought counter spy anti-spyware, mailwashe anti-spam, avg anti-virus, zone alarm firewall and registry mechanic. Booting up with all these is a very slow, painful process.
i recently bought a router which has a firewall in it.
1) do i really need a router with a firewall AND Zone alarm software firewall?
2) exactly what security-related software do i need?
3) what software do i need in startup? it takes 10 minutes now to boot up
