Agreed. I've been running AV free (that is without av) for at least 2 years on my XP Pro home workstation. I periodically scan my system with ClamAV portable or similar and I've found no evidence of infection. I just practice safe computing. Running as a non admin account and safe surfing with Firefox. I'm not suggesting that others should do this, but it just goes to show that simple basic measures can remove most risk of virus/spyware infection.
