Guys, he wants SECURITY software. Not MacOSX!

-----------

I recommend:

Antivirus, if you don't already have one:

Avast or Avira (avoid AVG 8, its slow ever since ver7.5)

OR any paid-for antivirus (but avoid Norton 360).

Anti-malware (get all four):

Lavasoft Ad-aware

Malwarebytes Anti Malware (this is good for removing the infamous XP Antivirus 2008 rogue AV)

Spybot Search and Destory.

Hijackthis (a brute force approach to removing malware)

Firewall:

Comodo Firewall.

Your windows default firewall also works fine, too.

Others:

Ccleaner (use this program to wipe all traces of your browsing history, recent apps and so on).

Firefox 3 (browse safely) with Adblock extension (no more advertising!)

Startup Monitor (notifies you whenever a program is registered to startup, gives you option to allow or deny)

Sysinternals Process Explorer (a better version of the Task Manager)

This is a link where you can downlod for free Firefox http://bitly.com/1xTzK8D

Very useful program!

Bye Bye

Forget about windows and use Mac OS X. Then, you need Norton anti-virus. iWork is optional, you can use Neo-office or Open-office.

assuming you have windows, i'd say object dock - www.stardock.com and www.wincustomize.com for skins

Bittorrent client - Google bittorrent, use www.thepiratebay.org for torrents

iTunes for sure - www.apple.com
