you can also try some Paid Wordpress Plugins for more features

The best paid wordpress plugin in my opinion is OIO PUblisher, I've bought it myself and have had several purchases coming in through my sites, all automatic

AntiVirus?? Shouldnt that be on the server level? Once you get several wordpress blogs updating them all can be a pain. Much less installing and making sure that an "antivirus" is updated.

I quite like Random Image Selctor. It is not exactly a photo gallery plugin, but check if it suits your needs.

Also, I would like to ask if anyone knew of a free/paid plugin which allows you to automatically Digg/Stumble your posts. Something like those many auto-tweet plugins. As soon as you make the post, it is submitted to Digg and other bookmarking sites. Any help would be appreciated.

Some I use that haven't been mentioned:

Google Privacy Policy This plugin provides a direct and easy to include privacy policy to meet Google's requirements for websites using AdSense.

ICRA Label Generator
This plugin generates the appropriate ICRA ratings for your WordPress site and integrates the information into your site.

Max Banner Ads PRO Easily rotate banners and ads in almost anywhere in your wordpress blog without editing the theme. (worth the purchase)

SEO Friendly Images
Automatically adds alt and title attributes to all your images. Improves traffic from search results and makes them W3C/xHTML valid as well.

Thumbnail For Excerpts
Thumbnail For Excerpts allow easily, without any further work, to add thumbnails wherever you show excerpts (archive page, feed...).

Ultimate Plugins Smart Update Pinger
Replaces the built-in ping/notify functionality. Pings only when publishing new or future posts, not when editing. The new post's url is pinged, not the main url. Also includes reverse order logfile.

Widget Logic
Control widgets with WP's conditional tags is_home etc
