I want to load windows on my new Mac book Pro. I use free versions of AVG, A squared, ccleaner and spybot on my pc. Are these programs compatible with Boot Camp?

No, they are not compatible with BootCamp.... but they are compatible with Windows XP/Vista running natively or even in virtual environments.

Windows doesn't run inside or under BootCamp. It is a set of drivers, services, and a control panel.

The only program I ran into that won't, was Acronis TI11 doesn't run on EFI/GPT.

Anything that runs on any PC will run the same. The only time you have trouble are things like graphics drivers, chipset, and motherboard level driver support.
