What antivirus programs are people using?
I have been using Symantec Antivirus corp edition v8 but have just found out it has been causing problems with XP

With fresh install of XP with service pack 1 Incorporated and all the updates, once Sav is installed it wont shutdown correctly
Maybe this is just my copy of SAV, I might have to try another

Its 20 odd meg or you could try Xteq X-Setup which is a tweaking program. It gives you the option to get XP to close unresponding programs on shutdown automatically after x seconds. It might do the trick.

i use inoculateIT probably one of the best anti-virus packages out there, but it's kind of a buisness product.

I've had no AV programs for 2 years and have had no problems 
good common sense and a nice firewall do wonders
