Unofficial Security Suite Researched quite a lot and seems that the following is the best combination of security utilities For Windows 7:
Anti-Virus: ESET Nod32
FireWall: ZoneAlarm
Been using them for a while and they're GREAT.
Anyone else care to share their experiences with these programs? | My System Specs |

Comodo is better IMHO because it does not mess around with the kernel as much. | My System Specs | | System Manufacturer/Model Number Too many to list.
