I did not change the order in the BIOS menu, so the Windows drive is still set first. Is there anything else I should...

Re: Do I need antivirus and a firewall?
I would recommend guarddog as it passes the Shields Up! test and using ipblock as well.

Re: IP / Port Blocking
Guarddog works well enough to pass the Shields Up! Test, but you may also want to use ipblock. Here is the link to the how-to:

Re: is swap partition necessary
Hope Im not hijacking your thread but, does anyone know if you had a full 4G of memory and were in 64bit mode, would you still need swap memory, and would a 1:1 ratio still be recommended?

Re: Is there a good torrent client with labels and auto-move?
I use deluge and it seems to work well and they have the plugins you want (at least auto-move dunno what you mean by labels.) You can download the latest .deb from their website too. Good Luck!

Re: Switching to linux
Well the solution for you, my friend, might be to dual-boot your PC. That way you can use linux and still have windows for your games.
