I recently installed Windows on my Intel iMac with Boot Camp and I really have no desire to have my computer ridden with viruses now lol, so I was wondering, what is the best antivirus/antispyware and or firewall software for Windows that doesn’t hog the resources. I know Norton, McAfee, and it’s similarities do this so i’m looking for something (preferably free) that will work. Any suggestions are appreciated!

Norton, AVG, OneCare and McAfee are rubbish.
Just to warn you.
You need more than anti-virus: I use this combination of free programs, all of which are very kind on resources.
Avira: http://www.free-av.com/ (if you don’t have anti-virus, or if you have Norton or AVG replace it with this) currently using: 8mb of memory
Spyware Terminator (turn off web security guard): http://www.spywareterminator.com/ currently using: ~10mb
Spybot: http://www.safer-networking.org/ (use immunise feature) teatimer (not necessary, can be turned off): 43mb
Superantispyware: http://www.superantispyware.com/ currently using: 0mb (scanning only)
Comodo: http://personalfirewall.comodo.com/ (turn off defense+ to see fewer alerts) currently using: 7.5mb
