On the win32 side I agree that AVG is deep in my toolkit.
for a dual boot I would recommend loading up wour win32 with free software as a first choice because then you can use the same programs under each system and not have to learn two sets of commands(ie Photoshop & Gimp)
Most other win32 apps that I couldn't do without (should i find myself on that arch somehow) are included on the GnuWin II CD http://gnuwin.epfl.ch/apps/en/index.html the most essential of these are
gvim -- ascii editor
gimp -- graphics
UnxUtils -- ls,grep,find,wget etc for dos essential for minimising brain damage
celestia -- fruit
winamp2 -- yes 2 (polished & less annoyance IMHO)
and on the finux side
all the same plus I would feel in the dark if gkrellm was not letting me know _everything_ going on under the hood
oh! and xplanetbg to remind you how small your problems really are:-)

Why take control when you can give information.
