I need a new anti-virus/firewall program for my computer which I work and game on. I had to reformat my computer due to ZoneAlarm wouldn't let me use any chat programs anymore. What do you recommend that I use? It can be commercial.

Thank you,
Alendar

Two very good firewalls are Comodo and Sygate, both of which are free.
There are also several good free A-Vs, such as AVG, available.

I use avast home av and comodo firewall pro. Both are free and easy to set up, and work great together.

I like Comodo Firewall Pro and AntiVir PersonalEdition Classic

Ok, thank you very much.

uhhh yeah ... used zone it sucked and messed up stuff ...

comodo is good doesnt block or slow down anything i would use a good anti virus and anti spyware tho


AVG- Anti-Spyware
Ad-Aware SE pro
Ad-Watch SE pro
Nod32-Anti-virus



thats my setup ... i added Nod32 cause i got it for free , as with the profesion versions of Ad-aware and ad-watch ... but the pro versions of those dont really make it better just like auto updating and stuff .


note nod32 is good but very confusing so w.e

go for what u like
