Antivirus/antispyware program help

[Frequitude]

I have a new computer and obviously want to protect it.

What is the best antivirus program out there? Free is nice, but security is nicer. So suggestions for both would be appreciated.

How about antispyware? I was thinking of using Spybot S&D, Ad-aware SE, and the MSFT Anti-spyware software. Are there better out there?

Just the microsoft beta will suffice.

Thanks ghostface, I'll grab that right now.

How about antivirus. Is it worth it to just fork over the ~$50 for a quality program like Norton?
