If I upgrade to a new gateway-will I lose my software?

You shouldn't lose any of your upgraded hardware either. I don't usually upgrade my gateway b/c 1. Its expensive. 2. I can make do on a slow computer for now (I'm pretty fast.)
I just bounce my calls a bunch of times, and compromise a few sysems beforehand (get admin access). It's really easy to get admin on the International Student Database, at least for a while (its not permanent).
I'm still on my 1st (unupgraded) gateway, and I hack the Social Security Database all the time. I guess I'm kind of a nOOb (I'v only had uplink for about a week). Ah well...

You'll quickly find with the later missions that you NEED the required memory and processing speed to complete the necessary tasks. It's a bunch more fun as well!
------------------ Jump HIGH & Swing HARD!!
It's good because important software like Monitor, Proxy, and Firewall Bypassers v. 5.0 are very important. It would be terrible to buy these again every time you bought a new gateway. It would make buying hardware upgrades useless until you got a gateway you would stay with.
------------------ Maniak hacks like crazy!
I know, but until I get to level 6 missions, I never upgrade. I just get nice software and compromise servers.
i usually buy a processor upgrade to 200 and get the bypassers before i up my gateway, and from there i tend to up it straight to a trinity, but that's just me. Since one you got the bypassers you can rob banks, of course.
