    The best anti-virus is being smart about you download but if you need something for free I would have to reccomend AVG personal anti-virus.
    The memory usage is small, it updates frequently, and there is good live virus protection.

    Spyware; well thats another story...lol

    It served me just fine for a year before I discovered comcast customers receive mcafee for free :eek:

    Actually it isnt free anymore and their free edition blows :(

    Try AVAST Home edition....Its quite good and finds just about everything, albeit is a tad slower than avg...But it has Instant messenger protection :eek:

    However, many programs will be heuristically categorized as a virus based on what they do (connect through certain ports). If you trust a program (many proxy progs show up as trojans) do not delete it! lol.

    i always used limewire but recently when i would try to download something there wouldnt be enough sources so i gave up on it and started using emule...its kinda confusing tho, so maybe ill use another, much easier program.
