Any suggestions would be great :D Trying to decide on my next Anti-Virus solution, perhaps a full Internet Security Suite.

As for you're AV, I would recommend Trend Micro. It has to be one of the best IS solutions out there that offer a great web guard.

A few more plugins that you can add to Opera,
HTTPS Everywhere, Adblock Plus, No Script and Lastpass.
Also is you UAC on high?

I will also look into Trend Micro that was another one I am considering....and of course thanks for the plugin suggestions, I will add those too.

I am having a difficult time figuring out how the UAC works on Windows 8. I always set up standard accounts for myself on previous versions of Windows. Currently, I am set as Admin.

Great to hear that. You really should give Trend ago. You will be surprised on how great the web guard is. :)
