Are any of these any good or would one be better off with individual firewall, antivirus and anti-spyware tools?

I'm setting up a PC for a family member who is fairly likely to go on all manner of dodgy websites and say yes to every pop-up and while I'm fully aware they can't be completely protected, I would like to have a comprehensive set of software on there.

At the moment I'm leaning towards ZoneAlarm firewall, Kaspersky antivirus (Nod32's user-unfriendly reputation has put me off that as it would be unsuitable for this person), and Ad-Aware.

In a perfect world I'd get Kaspersky security suite and take care of it all in one fell swoop but from the reviews it seems that the non-antivirus parts of it leave a fair bit to be desired.

What do the experts here think? And thanks in advance for your advice.
