If you want to spend money, Norton Security.
If you want to do it for free, begin with either AVG or Avast as the anti-virus program. Both are at download.com
Then add Zonealarm for the firewall (again download.com)
Finally add Skybot Seek & Destory. Also either Ad-aware or Microsoft Defenders. (As each use a different list of what is considers spyware, running a second one will caught anything the first one misses). Unlike the anti-virus and the firewall, you have to manually run the anti-spyware programs to be sure that your PC stays clean.

Since your traveling and using wireless I would suggest Zone Alarm. Zone Alarm lets you know when you are switching networks, covers spyware, virus, firewalling, port fowarding, Security Vault, Trusted Zones, Cache Cleaner, Program OS firewall. Too much to list. I've used it for 3 years now. It won't imbed itself to your PC like Symantic Products (Norton) making it nearly impossible to uninstall.

I use Panda Platinum Internet Security, and would recommend it to anyone. It has all the bells and whistles you mention, and much more. I have used McAfee and Norton in the past, but have been infected with viruses while using both of these programs. It's not cheap, but you get what you pay for. http://www.pandasoftware.com/ Good Luck.

Norton Antivirus, from Symantec is the best out there I think. It'll cost you a little money, $60 a year or so, if you get a legal copy.

Use AVG for both antivirus and antispyware. Go to http://free.grisoft.com and download AVG Anti-Virus Free and AVG Anti-Spyware Free. After you download update both of them.
