Best Security/Utility Suite Applications for WinXP Pro (SP2)?

[piromaneak]

As the post says, obviously Norton and McAfee are the most popular when it comes to security suites (Anti-Virus, Anti-Hack, Generally Anti-Bad stuff) but are they the best? What do you guys recommend as the best all-encompassing Security Solution for a computer? Also, what are the best Utility Suites out there (i.e. something similar to Norton SystemWorks)? Any help appriciated...

Free, good AV like Antivir + Kerio Personal Firewall + Regcleaner/RegScrubXP/CrapCleaner + Ad-aware/SpywareBlaster/Spybot....that's everything I need and I didn't pay a dime for any of it.

I've been using Norton SystemWorks a couple years now and I like it. Easy to use and does all the things I need to keep my system happy🙂

BTW, I do have the free spy/adware software which is also great.

i actually use Trend Micro PC Internet Security 2005. caught a hell-of-a-lot more viruses and trojans than norton or macaffee ever did! And best thing is, it's on limwire in a package deal w/ kegen 😛 lol

or you could buy it from newegg fro $50, which isn't bad considering how much it caught and cleaned
