Because I have heard that some companies have develop a way to find illegal copies and to avoid getting a sue from one off them, I wanted to buy the software instead :P

i don't know where you are from but in most country's there's something like privacy.
which means your isp may never give out your adress.
it's a bit hard 2 sue you without them knowing who/where you are.

but avg (http://www.grisoft.com) is a good av (in the top 5 of av's).

Get yourself Sygate Pro as a software firewall, don't get me started on how bad ZA is where DC is involved, pay for it of course ;)

If you need help to configer it, go here:
