Which Anti-Virus and Security for Vista?

Hi:
I've been a long-user of Norton as far as I remember.

However, I wonder Norton is good for Vista?
Or, any other anti-virus and security is more preferrable to Vista
knowing Vista is more complicated OP in comparison to XP.

Any inputs on this would be appreciated.

NOD32

Vista firewwall control

A-Squared

Spybot.

Cisco

x64 OS

I used to be a long-time user of Norton. Not any more.

Whether Vista or XP, in my view, Norton is the *worst* security
software on the market.

In general, I recommend the same products, all freeware, for either XP
or Vista:

Avast! for anti-virus

Two or more of the following anti-spyware products:

Adaware
Spybot Search and Destroy
Spyware Blaster
Windows Defender
Super Antispyware
