Bitdefender, Kaspersky, and Nortan are definitly ones you should consider, but you do have to pay for them.

NOD32 is much better and superior AV than most out there.

As far as Anti-Spyware...Free one: Ad Aware, One you have to buy: Spy Sweeper

Spy Sweeper is extremely effective and up-to-date but it is costly.
