Three-fence! Just because it looks like it belongs in a nursery rhyme ^_^ But other than that, I use defence for sports and defense for military type things. Though I guess that doesn't make too much sense, does it?
I say defence. But now both seem weird! Stupid language *grumbles.*

Huh. I naturally type it with a 'c' but I always thought, as an American, I would spell it with an s (as was said before, it's partially a 'depending-on-where-you-live'/'if-you're-a-Brit-Australian-Canadian' thing). Plus, I think I've seen the two spellings at different times in the same story (of mine), though I don't know if I've used them differently (as in sports/military) or not. I think my fingers just like betraying me sometimes... *sigh* XD
Generally, though, I think the proper spelling (like, what you should use in an essay) is with a 'c'.

People who have to spell it in a spelling bee and the judges of said spelling bee. My mom had to spell it one time and she spelled it with a 'c', but the judges insisted she was wrong. They had to look it up before they would give it to her! ^^;
