Recommend me a Antivirus and Firewall.

At the moment i am using Kaspersky Anti Virus and Kerio Personal firewall. Both seem pretty good and i've had no problems so i suppose they are working :)

Yup same here :)
 
I use NOD32 for AV, can't fault it at all. Even convinced my bro who liked Norton! :p Firewall wise, I use my Router + XP SP2's built in firewall.

Is this ok though??? Or should I use perhaps Zone Alarm or Kerio Personal Firewall instead, or, even with the XP SP2 firewall?

Thanks! :D
 
I uninstalled Sygate and installed Kerio. Sygate has been discontinued so I was a little worried about updates etc... Very happy with Kerio so far.

Firegod: I also use a router which has a firewall, but I would strongly recommend a software firewall to stop unwanted applications, virus's, dialers, etc..etc.. from connecting to the net. Also, if the router misses anything the software firewall should knock it out.

I think ZA, Kerio and Outpost are the three best firewalls. It's a shame Symantec took over Sygate, they were obviously jelous that Sygate was better and FREE :(

Very happy with NOD32, can't believe it uses hardly any resources on my PC. Also, you can make it do a more thorough scan, if you don't mind about the speed.
