I don't have any software as such.
I run Spybot every month or so, but find only tracking cookies, which don't matter.
I run online scans about every few months or so, and they dont show any results. So It's just a waste of resources, money and time.

I used Microsoft Anti-Spyware, Lavasoft Ad-Aware and the Windows Firewall enabled. Works fine for me, I barely get probolems anyway.

Back in my PC days I would have norton and ad-aware.
I loved ad-aware, it beat spybot hands down.

AVG 7.1.371 Free Edition for Anti Virus protection. (only had 3 tame viruses over 2 years)
Spybot and Ad Aware for spyware removal.
Windows Firewall and router firewall for connection security.
I don't see the point of paying for premium services when they provide nothing more than the free services in reality. Also browsing habits account for a lot of security breaches, don't go to porn sites, hacking sites, don't open e-mail attachments, don't randomly give out your e-mail address...etc...

I have disabled Windows Firewall and i haven't got no firewall, it realyl slows down my computer and most webpages won't work at all.
I use AVG Anti-Virus 7.0 Free Edition, System Suite 6.0 and Spybot Search And Destroy (For them rare times when i decide to check what adware and spyware i have.)
