Almost all software are Vista compatible now. Following are y recommendations:

Anti-virus: avast! or AVG in FREE and NOD32 or Kaspersky in PAID
Antispyware: No need. "Windows Defender" is good.
Firewall: No need. Vista in-built firewall is good enough.
Multimedia software: WMP11 rocks.

And all other common software, like firefox, WinRAR, 7-Zip, Winamp, IDM, FDM, FlashGet, Opera, Maxthon, Safari, etc are Vista compatible.

In codec Pack, I'll recommend "Combined Community Codec Pack". I faced a few problems in K-Lite Codec Pack in Vista, so I tried this new pack and its really cool.

I shall go with the above but no harm if you add Lavasoft adaware 2007 and Spyware terminator which are free and good.

If you are asking for softwares with log like

or

then refer here to applications which have gone through the logo certification program for Microsoft Windows Vista, can be found here at Application List: Certified for Windows Vista and also most every software u see now works with windows vista !!!
