I used comodo firewall, avg anti virus and spyware terminator. All are free downloads and the only unwanted guests I had was from tracking cookies that were easily dealt with. avg and spyware terminator have regular updates as well (daily for avg).

How good is AVG for detecting Trojans?

Oh arse! My Steganos AVP won't let me download any of those as it runs contradictory to it's program.
