Well i feared i would have to do that, and i've already started backing things up. I just have a few questions though.

1) What is the best anti-virus to use (currently i have Norton Antivirus 2004 but it seems a bit resource hungry...)

2) Is Adware Pro the 'Lavasoft Ad-aware' software? and is it the best one to use for stopping adware/spyware from getting on the computer, (i have heard that Spybot S&D is good aswell)?

3) My friends still using kazaa lite have been complaining of slower download speeds, is there a new version that doesn't have this problem?

4) What is the best firewall program to use that isn't too resource hungry?

Thanks heaps for the fast reply too. Ya see the other computer in the house is full of it too, so you really did us two favours =)

I'll let ya know how it goes...
