    Hi,

    I just bought my acer one XP ysterday and will get it tomorrow afternoon. One of my main concerns is the Anti-virus. is there an anti-virus included already? Or do i have to buy one? Can i get a good one online, like as in, I can download it from there? Also, how is the media capability? Can it still play youtube videos or any VCD?? Thank you!

    If you want a free (but still very good) anti virus program that does not require so much from the computer, try AVG Free (http://free.avg.com/)

    Avast home edition is free and it is pretty good.

    But the best way to protect is to install linux :D

    AVG meets the system requirement for the AAO. And I use this a-v at home too and it's great.
