We have Macs at home.
For Windows, I like Microsoft Security Essentials. It's pretty fast, and doesn't use a lot of resources. It automatically updates alongside your patches. It looks for viruses and other malware. It's free.
Which also means it is out there for the black hats to get easily, look for holes in and exploit
You're kidding yourself if you think that any commercially available virus scanner isn't thoroughly examined by black hats. Obscurity isn't security.
Firefox!
Yay for Firefox, but I don't think its that simple. Because IE is an integral part of Windows, an exploit in IE means an exploit in Windows itself, correct?
Used to be able to uninstall IE. Don't know if that's still possible. Get a Mac. No IE problems.

I think it literally will not allow you to uninstall it.
True, but you can turn it off
