rocklobster -- I just took delivery on a brand new Dell a couple of weeks ago too. My only reason for not wanting anti-virus programs on my trading machine is that I want it to be as clean as possible. Anything that might add to the clutter is something I don't need. Anti-virus programs can and do cause some problems at times so I just as soon not have them on my trading computer. Same hold true for other utilities. If you have a machine as powerful as the one you describe, there's probably very little any add-on utility will add in the way of performance, but, OTOH, the likelihood of it screwing something up is greater (How's that for technical talk <GGG>) I'd just as soon not take the chance. The first thing I did when my Dell arrived was to format the hard drive and install only what I wanted on there. So now I have a lean, mean, trading machine... ;)
