    Ad-Aware SE Personal , Spybot-Search and Destroy , TweakNow Reg Cleaner ,

    Spyware terminator , AntiVir ( personal edition classic ) , CCleaner , Win Patrol ,

    Do I need to install a better firewall than the one included in XP ?

    Adaware and Spybot should suit you well.
    I wouldn't bother with the others.

    AV looks fine and as to firewalls I like to use ZoneAlarm.

    An occasional scan with one of the online scanners is also a good idea.
    Something like Trend Micro HouseCall - Start works a treat.

    Yeah, you don't need more than that. I think you are safe as long as you keep them all up-to-date!
