How can I make sure that my anti-virus is the first program to load after
windows?

Sorry, other than loading no other program but your antivirus protection,
this is not possible in XP. If your goal is better protection (loading the
a/v before a rogue app is loaded), the method will fail where a virus or
other malware is loading as a service. Typically, services are loaded
before applications.

If the antivirus program's definitions are kept current and the startup
axis is checked on a regular basis, most intrusions can be controlled
effectively.
