Heh. We Linux users ought to steal that technique. Post everything in black. 'Cause, you know... we're always lurking in the background, always watching, waiting for that perfect opportunity to sit up and say "I use Linux. What malware were you talking about, again?"

Seriously, I consider myself a geek, and I don't bother with security software on Vista, at all. I don't use it for anything but game playing and simulation, so why bother? Besides, if someone stole my identity... well, heck, maybe they'll pay my bills while they're at it :D

Well I've had a good experience with "Avira Anti-Vir". It's free, has a great detection rate and uses very little (lowest known?) resource. Look it up.

So there is no excuse whatever to pay even a penny for great anti-virus protection. Say thank you to the Linux open-source culture, which is invading the Windows and Mac world with a vengence! People who will never run Ubuntu or OpenSUSE (or even know what they are!) benefit daily from Linux' existence.

Did I say it right, luckyone? Hehehehe!

Amen. Say it again, brother! (Sorry, couldn't resist).

I'm just a big fan of "the right tool for the right job." Use whatever gets the job done in the right manner. The right manner could be related to difficulty of use, efficiency, financial cost, time, whatever.

So for security software... if you feel that shelling $40 a year out to Norton works for you, great. If you like downloading a free security software package like AVG or Avast, fine. If you want to join us fine, intelligent, and charming (not to mention good looking) gentlemen running some distribution of Linux... great! :D
