How secure do you think your PC is?

[Sasafrass452]

Well, that's just a precaution but it's not really needed right now. I do have a firewall with my ISP.

Then why do they sell Linux Antivirus Apps?

If you do not have a firewall installed, then you are not that secure... (YES there IS a firewall for Linux)

Which firewall?

[JayDee]

AntiVirus- Norton
Firewall- Norton Internet Security and my DLink DI-624+ router (oh yeah! go go hardware firewall)
Adware- LavaSoft AdAware

Safest way to protect your PC is running a hardware firewall, and a propper setup in your IP filter in your router

Good choice. I'd pick myself up a copy to see how it compares to Kaspersky, but they only sell volume licenses.

How are startup times with it enabled?

They don't only sell volume licenses...

My laptop:
Anti-Virus: Symantec Client Security 10 (Norton AV Corp 10)
Firewall: Symantec Client Security 10 (very much like the firewall included in Norton Internet Security) + personal router behind corporate firewall
Anti-Spyware: I have quite a few different anti-spyware programs. All the basics like Ad-Aware, Spybot S&D, Spysweeper, etc, plus a few more advanced ones like Hijack-This. One of my primary job functions used to be removing viruses and spyware, and other junk from computers, so I know a lot of the tricks.

Which firewall?

iptables?
SELinux?

and there are anti-virus apps for Linux, but I wouldn't run one. I'm not that paranoid... yet.

Ditto that.
