You really do not need anything but the Norton Anti-Virus app from
the Systemworks CD.
As someone else has mentioned you should have RegClean on your
desktop and should run it daily.
You should also be running M$ DiskCleanup and Defrag regularly,
between the two they will keep your HDD in good order (be sure
to toggle on the extra features in Defrag that reorganize your HDD
for best performance).
Keep it simple and keep it organized and your computer should
survive Windows ... until you upgrade to Linux (the new SuSE 8.0
provides the superior Linux operating system and the totally M$
compatible StarOffice suite -- word processing, spreadsheet,
database, etc. -- plus Internet apps, etc. all for $39.95 or so.
Can't beat that price through M$!)
Just a thought or two ... probably worth what you paid for them!
IMHO, YMMV .... 73, doc kd4e
