I quite like windows 7. If you have solid state disks they will run MUCH better. I've found Windows7 scales significantly better with more resources, such as an i7 cpu, than XP does.. XP barely used your 3rd & 4th core, for instance.

Wherever you end up. Your work on TTY has been quite useful. I must say though, my favorite work you have ever done must be the work on carrier pigeon protocol.

Use the best program you can find for each entry point. E.g., I use:

1.) Hardware NAT device, such as a linksys or netgear router.
2.) AVG antivirus. It's free. Annoying but good.
3.) Firefox 3 browser with noscript plugin. (noscript.net). Noscript is amazing.
4.) Anti-spam software, auto-preview disabled, default all external email to plain-text ("plain text click to view").

I agree with all the others that it's really difficult to determine if you're infected. Also agree the best way to find out if you are is to look at your router's logs.
