Answer 2

It should be enough protection provided you don't do anything stupid to jepordize the comp

Answer 3

i would recommend the kaspersky internet security suite, it even detects any suspicious software and viruses, as well as trojans... on places you never even considered... only drawback is, it kind of "eats up" your resources, so i should suggest that you have at least 512mb of RAM with that... overall kaspersky is pretty powerful if you ask me....

but nothing beats common sense in protecting your computer, don't open any attachments from suspicious people, or ask them if they sent it. if you're using an IM (Yahoo messenger or MSN, etc.) don't just accept files or click on links. an ounce of prevention is worth more than a ton of cure
