Rebirth Of An Old Laptop

I dusted off an old laptop thats been sitting on my shelf.  A fresh install of XP and it's back in working order.  This machine is going to be used almost strictly for the web.  I won't be installing my typical apps on it, only web necessities.  With that said, I'll run down the list of what I have installed on this machine:

• Browsers and Mail
  
• IE by default, of course
• Firefox 2.0
  
• Flock 0.9
• Mozilla Thunderbird, connecting to my Gmail account
• Mozilla Sunbird, a calendar application
• Security and Maintenance
  
• CrapCleaner - deletes all of the excess junk that builds up
  
• AusLogics Disk Defrag - Windows Defrag sucks
• Spyware Doctor
• Adaware from LavaSoft
• Additional Software
• Yahoo Instant Messenger
• WebCam software
• Will be adding Trillian and a good text Editor

I was toying with doing a dual boot with Ubuntu Linux, but I think that may go against my goal here.  I simply want a fast web browsing laptop.  Hopefully, I'll be able to keep it that way.
