Avast! It is very non-intrusive, yet does a great job. It even gives a verbal notification of updates.

AVG is crap ware. So far i agree with most of the posters here. If you want protection that works you need a paid version of Avira or Kaspersky. Personally, I like Kaspersky the best. If your computer is clean it will stay clean with Kaspersky. I have had it now for two years. 2 virus free years. I can say that with Avast or AVG. Get rid of AVG while your ahead. If you keep it it's only a matter of time before your hopelessly infected with Trojan mal ware. You can get a virus anywhere on the net. Some places are worse than others. You need something that works. Not some little kiddie AV.

I've used Mozilla Firefox for over a year now and like it just fine. Before that I had Norton and when it expired and I tried to update, the new version wouldn't work with my old Windows ME. I didn't want to upgrade to XP and so someone suggested Mozilla Firefox and I think it is very good.
