Oh, and regarding Anti-Virus...

Unless you have a specific reason, don't pay for AV... All these free products get the same updates as the retail products.

If your broadband provider like SBC offers one, use it. I think theirs is CE.

Second option is probably AVG http://free.grisoft.com/doc/1

Last is Avast. This probably is the most secure as it interfaces to email, Internet, disk, P2P, etc, but it is a slight resource hog IMHO. http://www.avast.com/eng/avast_4_home.html

Since I store everything on my server, I have all three running on differeent clinet machines so I figure I should find just about anything.
