Brian Cooley and I lose our jobs, but before we do, we answer questions on wireless TV streaming, VirtualBox, and more.

Watch the show on CNET TV.

Things we crave:

Watchmen iPhone app

Suction cups mount your camera to your car hood

Download of the week

Afloat 2.1.1

First Look

Sony Cyber-shot DSC-HX1

Quick Tip Send and receive text messages in Gmail

CNET Store

Take a look at shop.cnet.com where you can order CNET T-shirts, mugs, and more.

Your video calls:

Alexander in Brazil wanted to know about PC gaming in Boot Camp on a Mac, and how to change the middle-click button option so it doesn't bring up the Dashboard in OS X. Windows games play pretty well, but you have to take in account the Mac hardware. It's not up to what a good PC gaming rig would be. As for the middle-click, go to System Prefs pane choose expose and spaces and look for Dashboard. There's a setting there for turning of the middle-click to bring up Dashboard.

Your calls:

What's the best free antivirus? Download.com has a great page of editors' picks for security software you should look at. Our top free antivirus pick at CNET is AVG Free Edition.

Need some good free Mac software? Take a look at OpenSourceMac.org

I didn't have an answer for our caller from Mumbai about port forwarding in VirtualBoxc, but Tales in the #cnetfans chat room suggested looking at this posting.

If you want some info on TV tuner cards with closed captioning, look over at the Hauppage site for their WinTV2000 Application FAQ.

Some of the best gear Brian Cooley has found for wirelessly streaming TV is from Netgear. Here's its product pages.
