I have moved this post to Linux-General so it will get more exposure. You could also check the top of this part of the forum - Trickykid wrote a thread on this.

It helps if you tell people what distro you are trying to use.

Superkaramba ha a great weather applet called Liquid weather, for AV I would go with Clam or f-prot.

Also, there is some debate about whether you need anti-virus software for Linux (generally not unless you're on a server that provides files or e-mail to Windows clients). You should check out the security forum for more resources and information.
