Anti Virus Software for Vista?

Hi I have ordered a new laptop and its coming in a few days and I require anti-virus software fro it. I have come across phrases such as



Anti-Virus



Anti-Malware



Anti-Spyware



ETC you get the point . I have broadband and most Viruses come from the net. So I am looking for something that talkes all forms of Viruses Trojans Spyware and Malware.



I have tried many Anti Virus software on XP some are Norton and Mcfee. Both are not recommended. I liked Spyware Terminater and Spyware Doctor. Both are great and pick up everything. I have heard that they are spyware detectors and not Anti-Virus etc. So I am confused. I am going to pay for the software so not interested in any free ones. Just those that I could rely on to protect my computer online and in general. I have Heard of BITDEFENDER and Kasperky. Never tried them and heard both are good. What do you guys think is the best?

Norton and McAfee was probably not recommended as it slows your system down by quite an amount.



I would recommend a lineup of software like these to make your OS 99% secure ( no product is 100% secure ).



An anti-virus ( would recommend Kaspersky. Don't go for Bitdefender as it was reviewed to slow your OS more than Norton or McAfee. Oh and don't use 2 anti-viruses )



An anti-spyware ( I recommend you get Webroot Spysweeper since it wins the top for anti-spywares. Next up of a good choice is Spyware Doctor. Anti-spywares are fine to have more than 1 )
