These are my picks. No offense. Dump ZA get Sygate. Get Spybot Search & Destroy it's far superior to AAW. But keep AAW anyways. Replace NSW with Avast! home AV & RegSeeker. Use SpywareBlaster, ScripTrap, MRU-Blaster, xp-antispy & dsostop2. Get O&O defrag 2000 & NetTransport.

The above are ALL freeware. I use all these apps on my xp pro box & it's very secure.

Oh yeah make sure you get all the critical updates from M$.

You sound like you know what your doing. Try a defragger too like Diskeeper by Execuitive Software great program they made the built in one for XP too. But this is much faster.oh and a regcleaner also . Regcleaner or Regseeker :)

Sorry but that's NOT a positive vote in my book for diskeeper. Also the fact that they're owned by Scientology. :(

For a free defagger imo nothings better than O&O Defrag 2000 (works in XP). :01:

No Diskeeper is not freeware :( But there's plenty of ways to aquire it[ cough ] crack or key generater . I swear by it deraggs in 20 seconds on my box :)

zabjb didn't realise this was a Pissing contest, he asked for an opionon on programs for XP so I gave my own.

@peat moss nothing against you. Peace.

I can't stand Scientology, hence also diskeeper.

Its a shame more people don't take more of an interest on how to keep their computer's running properly . Hey I know maby we could CHARGE for our limited knowledge. Hows about $ 5.00 a question? Ok I lose took me 2 minute's to find the $ key :lol:

Jeez SH,
You had to quote the pissing contest part? peat moss & I are cool.
But SH where's the most excellent program in the world? It's free & NOT on your site. Although I had your assurance it would be. Hmm.
