don't get more than one virus scanner, as this can lead to problems while scanning. i think you're safe and sound with all of those.

This is enough, but just keep in mind, unlike AVG, which is running all the time to protect your PC, spybot and ad aware are not running all the time giving you spyware protection! You need to run them manually from time to time to remove spyware.
Also do not run more than one virus program at the same time.

i had bad experience with avg, a virus still got in when i had avg. try norton or mcafee. i use zone alarm security suite now - comes with antivirus, firewall, antispyware, pop up blocker(i think), IM protection, and identity protection.

Never try to run more than one antivirus at a time. You are safe with what you have.
