Open or Free computer life is possible?

Commenti
Sorry, i have not a suggest for CD and DVD recording.
For the antivirus, Avast is one of the best, in the free market.
For Firewall, i have used ZoneAlarm for a log time.
A free coputer life is a good idea !
Perhaps a computer free life will be better !
have a nice day
