AVG anti virus program has a poor detection rate only 82%, I would use a better one with a higher detection rate, Avast & Avira AntiVir are both free with a better detection rates.
The rest are not bad but I would add the following:
(all are free)

Wow You Got All The Protection Im Using.
Instead Of Spyware Terminator, Im Using Windows Defender, Ad-Aware 2007 And AVG Anti-Spyware.
Congrats.

Ditto for...
SUPERAntiSpyware (free)
http://www.superantispyware.com/...
and...
CCleaner (free)
http://www.ccleaner.com/
or 'ATF' Cleaner which will clean up your Temp. Internet Files and Cookies, (just like 'Ccleaner').
'ATF' is small (36kb), quick to run and no installation required.
