Being a clinical psychiatrist I have a moral and legal obligation to keep my pc 100% clean from all virus/spyware/malware.
I tested every free and purchase antivirus system known. An I found only one that actually works 100%. Never had a virus or spyware in my system in nine years.
Go to, www.filseclab.com and download thier Twister AntiTrojan Virus program. (You will have to pay a small one time fee). You will never have to pay an annual fee for updates, support or new versions. The one time fee is for life. ($29.99)
The government of Mainland China uses this antivirus program.
The software company is located in Beijing, China. They have excellent support, frequent large signature updates an as always all new versions are free. No annual fee for anything.
Comes with a real time scanner that really works. Actually I am quite amazed over the nine years how well it works.
Scans memory on startup.
Real time scanning in the background.
Open any webpage with an embedded trojan/spyware or malware and scanner will clean on the spot. An It is really removed from your system.
Download any kind of program from zips, compressed files, software files, music, etc,etc, an if there is a hidden embedded trojan,spyware,malware, this program will stop the download and clean. An will advise you to end the download.
Will even find a virus in the installer wizard, like "Wise Installer". And will stop the installation while it is being installed and clean. Plus this program always will trace back who installed the trojan.
I had a trojan in and wizard installer. Twister caught the trojan and stopped the installation. I wrote the origianl company and told them the wizard installer had an embedded trojan to steal your data. The company now uses thier own installer.
You can't beat this software for a one time purchase fee only. Actually I don't know of any antivirus progam that even comes close to this state of the art technology.
All I can say it is worth the one time fee. Your pc cost alot of money and you don't want it destroyed. Plus your privacy is protected at all times.
There is nothing in it for me to praise this program. I tell it like it is. If it is garbage then I will say so.
If you download the most recent "Internet Explorer", comes with automatic pop-up prevention, phishing, makes sure that the webpage you are opening is the real webpage and not a fake.
Excellent free antispyware: www.superantispyware.com Download their free version.
Or if you prefer www.lavasoft.com and download their free "Ad-aware Personal SE. (I prefer the superantispyware is it scans every object in your system & updates are frequent). Plus the antivirus scans every object in your system, including your favorites & documents.
Make sure that you have all of your Microsoft patches upto date.
Enjoy your new IBM T60 laptop.
Stay away fron Nortons, (Symantec), it is absolute junk. And when you try to remove the program will leave about 300 fragments of Nortons/Symantec hidden or attached to your files all over your system.
And you will play hell trying to get them out as they conflict with everything in your system.

I used Norton in the past but for anti virus I am delighted with Avast Home Edition. It is a free download for home users. There are good anti spam programmes available and Spy Bot (Free) is quite good for Spyware

Most of Stand rd software available in the market are good and can be procured, however you may try the Norton as it has solutions for all such problems and normally has wider acceptability.

Norton and mcafee wil slow down your PC and they are both resource hogs
I would get AVG at www.grisoft.com
