What Are The Best Antivirus & Firewall Programs?

I recently had McAfee but it took up too many system resources and made my PC lag so I'm looking for a decent Firewall & Antivirus program(s) that doesn't take up a lot of resources and gets the job done. Also, it doesn't matter if it isn't free, I'll buy it

Thanks

This is what I use and I have found it to be an EXCELLENT security program
Firewall, antivirus & antispam, ID protection, Instant Messaging Protection, Parental Controls....you NAME it!
Take a look!
ZoneAlarm Security Suite 6.1.744.001

the free ones are usually just as good as the ones you pay for, at least some are....i used to have norton which i now hate with a passion, but i now use AVG free for antivirus and ZoneAlarm Free for my firewall. Been using them a few months now and havent had any problems whatsoever. Hardly use any resources either

 

I personally recommend Avast! and Kerio, they work well together and have kept my old rig pretty clean in which I now use that setup on this rig.

Along side Ewido Anti-Malware, Very good setup

 

For Firewall: ZoneAlarm
For Anti-virus, spyare etc. . .:Ad-Aware SE Personal

 

Ad-Aware isn't an anti-virus program; it's a spyware fighting tool only.

 

I've found NOD32 and Kerio4 firewall work well together and don't use a lot of resources.

 

AVG for AntiVirus
ZoneAlarm for Firewall

 

aVast! and Zone Alarm

AVG blew up when they went to engine ver. 7

ZA is solid, as always

IMHO
