Are there any free Anti-Virus/Spyware programs out there that anyone uses?
 
In my experience Norton/McAfee never really worked too well.

AVG and Panda are great free anti-virus/spyware software.

Windows Defender is included with Vista and is a free download from Microsoft. It's good too =)

SPybot is a good spy ware program that is free.  I have been using it with Windows Defender, Avast and AVG with good luck.

Try Avast for AV software and Ad-Aware for spyware...they're both free and have great reviews on www.download.com. I am currently running them on both my XP machines with no issues.
