From personal experience I’d use AVG or Avast! – both efficient and both available free to download. Only thing is, DON’T have two or more a/v’s running, they’ll fight each other!

For spyware, yes, Ad-Aware SE is great, you could also have Spybot Search & Destroy. You can run more than one anti-spyware prog if you wish.

I’ve used/still use all of these with no problem.

You HAVE got a firewall, haven’t you? If not, try Zone Alarm.

Hope this helps.
