I use Microsoft Security Essentials for my laptop AV, and it's done me OK so far. I'm sure others with more knowledge will give better advice.

As for browsers, I use Firefox because of the range of add-ons available. But I think it's a personal choice between FF and Chrome. I haven't used IE for donkeys now, except to test websites on, so can't comment on whether or not it's caught up with the other two or not.

I use IE since FF and chrome started getting those annoying things where you hover over a word and it brings up an advert. If I could remember how to disable it I'd probably go back but to be honest IE is absolutely fine.
