I know this is an old thread, but still. I use Comodo Internet Security (Free) it has a firewall, anti-virus, and anti-spyware. To backup the anti-spyware I use Spybot to actively scan my PC. That is a combo I use on the 3 machines in my house, 2 desktops and 1 laptop. Hope this info helps. Also all the stuff I use for security is free.

Yeah, surf DeviantArt and look for uxtheme patch. But make sure you get the one for XPSP3 or God knows what might happen. Or maybe look at WinMatrix or Neowin Forums, I have not used them myself, but there quite a few 3rd Party Skinners that use those sites.

Excuse me but, cutting support and applications for 32bit windows and xp users, just doesn't make sense when quite a few people don't have Vista; for whatever reason that maybe. I have an install disk, but am very comfortable using XP at the moment. And like angus said, suggest, don't demand, people will listen more, common sence should tell you that.
