This is simple:
1. skip the AV software
2. if you do not have a seperate firewall, then fire up some minimal
rules on ipchains/iptables
3. always use tcpwrappers (beacuse it is so easy)
4. turn off all unneccesary services
5. keep you system as updated/patched as possible
Each line item above can be a seperate thread if you have any questions.
