Keeping your computer safe is very important to anonymous online. You really don't want a trojan horse sending your information to somebody. Ubuntu comes with built-in firewall (it's not difficult to install one either). You can install Gufw (http://gufw.tuxfamily.org/) which is a great GUI to support your Ubuntu firewall. Latest version of windows comes with the firewall. Enable it (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Windows_Firewall) if you haven't already.
Anti virus is a necessary evil. I use Avast (http://www.avast.com/) and clamav (http://www.clamav.net/lang/en/download/packages/packages-linux/). Both are available for all three platforms. clamav is an open source project. I prefer using it.
