Both (Norton Internet Security 2004). Can't live on cable without AV and can't live on cable (for me at least) without a firewall. Although my friends disagree with me, I'm waiting for that one moment.....

Re: What do you use to keep your computer safe?
I might have a firewall set (not sure) but I do have an anti-virus

Re: What do you use to keep your computer safe?
I'll run an antivirus program from time to time, and I also run adaware fairly often, but besides that nothing really.

Re: What do you use to keep your computer safe?
No AV, no firewall. I do run Adaware and SpyBot every once in awhile.
I used to have Norton, but my subscription ran out and I got tired of the weekly reminders. Also, it would give me a pop-up once a day that told me to download updates. I got sick of it and deleted the program. No more protection from viruses.

Re: What do you use to keep your computer safe?
I just have Norton AV 2003 right now. I'm not too concerned with not having a firewall though. Once I get on cable though, I'll definately get one.

Re: What do you use to keep your computer safe?
I use:
Norton Antivirus
Firewall
Ad-aware
Firefox's built in pop up stopper
I would never own a computer without an antivirus. It's comparable to unprotected sex. lol. you just dont want to do that.
