Antivirus - Unless I'm mistaken, Dekekt is specifically designed to detect only a few specific pieces of malware, and that folks who are less technically familiar with virii should use something in addition. Winodws Security Essentials for Windows is free and about as adequate as any other paid service. Truecrypt/Ciphersecure is not an Operating System Recommending CACert is disingenuous as it is not in any trust stores, so you'll get certificate errors. Let's Encrypt is not available yet. Just about any CA is equivaltnt o any other - at the level of people who don't know what a 'CA' is, they compete on price, not features.
