      Take a look at this site:

      They use to give free Norton Antivirus licenses.

      You don’t need to uninstall spybot or adaware, just don’t use any real-time features.

      Windows Defender should not be uninstalled… it’s part of Vista (and I’m not even sure you can.) Instead, just turn it off. Open it, go to options, scroll down to admin options, turn off.

      Windows defender is an anti-spyware/malware program. It is not an anti-virus. You can leave it on.
