Yea, AVG and ZA work well. ZA needs a lot of program access editing when you first start, however.

Nah, USB cords are better. I like the reach they give me, so I can get round the 'back'. I'll have to use the screen-cleaners though. Good idea.

Yea, good combo that. Watch out for the stock "Windows anti-viral" when you first install, it hates other programs, its a jealous little b*tch. ZA is pretty needy, you have to let it in all your stuff for the first little while.

Just slap it down later though, once its settled in it doesn't make too much noise thats actually important.

Well, the USB's don't have enough weight for me, they take a few hits to get going, wheres a printer cord will be good to go asap.

Firewall: I use Comodo. It's free (believe it or not) and rated pretty highly in Firewall comparisons. Although its a bit of a pain having to click "allow" to every app you run... especially something like Freelancer, when you have to alt-tab back to the Windows desktop to see the popup. Of course this only happens the first time you run an app. I have no complaints.

Spyware: Good old Adaware and Spybot, can't go wrong. They're both free. I also use (scary music please) Windows Defender, at least while it remains free.

Antivirus: I'm afraid I use McCrappy, but only coz the company I work for has a home-use license agreement. In fact I have it disabled most of the time, only turning it on when I go to... certain websites of... questionable content. (Anything with .ru for instance:D)

Hope that helps! Oh if you want to know where to download the above, then I say, GIYF:D

Ah, Koolmo, thats where you get the USB memory sticks on the end. Bit of glue to stick them in and you got all the weight you need. Hell, I prefer the 20GB monsters...

Ach, I just use the printer. Thats got some weight, and it has a nice noise too, although the guy at the store think's I'm nuts for buying one ever week or so, they tend to break down.

Little too many paper cuts that way. Not my style.

My graffics card has a nice heat sink that gets into those small places. Lovely when it gets warm too.

Well, you don't leave the paper in there, it might get bent.

Well mine has a radiator, but its a little too complicated for us laymen, I'll stick with the old traditionals.

Hmmm, you're old school, I'm new. Maybe we should swap hardware one day.

...well, this has gone downhill.

Thanks for the stuff, guys. I'll go steal my father's wallet.
