I'm looking for recommendations for Antivirus and Spam elimination (or
reduction) software. I find plenty out there but would like to hear from
users instead of the advertisments and claims made on the box. Any
favorites?

I was a long time Norton's customer, but the latest release of SystemWorks
completely fritzed my XP box to the point that I had to do a clean XP
install.
Norton's customer service was beyond awful- not just offshore, but possibly
off-planet.
And that's too bad because it was a great product.
Now I'm using McAfee's suite, which isn't quite as complete (no HD tools).
Also running ZoneAlarm, Spybot, Adaware and Diskeeper (hard drive utility,
works fantastic).
