Iso: Good Virus/spyware Scanner & Firewall

[wolfway]

Hello everybody, as there's a nother topic about norton, it reminded me that soon i need some more protection to my pc.

as for now i use some bullguard 90 days trial thingy as firewall.
to check on spyware i use a program called ad-ware SE personal

don't have any virusscanner on my pc, but i use an online scanner by mcafee or norton.

now as my bullguard thing runs out soon, i want to have some advice for good FREE programs to delete spyware, virusses and a good firewall.

moof talked about the program avast in the other topic, this is only to check on virusses right? and what version is the best to take? (is the professional version free and the right one to take?) some help here pls moof

if you know programs that are really good please let me know

thanks,
maarten

Ad-aware - spyware
AVG so a free virus checker but I don't know how good it is.
Firefox is good at blocking most spyware before it gets onto your system

I agree with MIKE, Spybot is actually pretty awesome when it comes to spyware and it is so easy to use!

Not free forever, just 15 days, but awesome!

Since the couple of years that i have my pc, i tried norton, mcafee, kaspersky, nod32, avast. But since almost a year im with avg and i find it the best, its easy to use and had no problem with it.

For spyware i use spybot search and destroy and i like it.

I use avg too, and it's pretty good. For a firewall, I use Zone alarm. It's good, easy to use, and there is a free version.
