I think I can back every choice there GLC. I ran McAfee for a couple of years and eventually switched to Norton. I find that Norton isn't nearly as much of a resource hog and since I run my computers 24/7, I let the Windows Scheduler check for updates EVERY night. This way, I KNOW I'm updated.

ZoneAlarm is awesome and free as well. If it's within budget, get a Linksys router, it's a real cool piect of equipment.
