What do you guys think is a good firewall, but without annoying warnings all the time, but which makes sure there is no intrusion.
And even more important, uses low memory space

In the past I already used:
Norton internet security (I hate it)
Kerio personal firewall (after sunbelt took over it got worse imo)
Zone alarm (I don't know, for some reason i don't like it that much as most people)

I know exactly what you mean.

Before I got my own machine, if I even looked at his anti-virus software the wrong way he'd be freaking out and asking me what I did, or would be paranoid at the slightest frame freeze in his precious solitaire game. *rolls eyes*

Agreed. The only times I've had a virus was when I LET them on to my computer before a reformat for fun.
