My friend got to test norton 360 a while back before they atrted selling it. He siad it was very good. And by very good i mean performance wise. Still dont know how good it is protection wise though.
I have norton 2007 although i dont actually have it installed. Lol. Windows firewall + hardware firewall ftw.

Sygate Personal Firewall (you can get it from oldversion.com). It's a simple, easy to use and doesn't hog up memory.
It is no longer supported although, I never had any problems before.

It's pretty good overall, but when it's running a scan it tends to lagg my computer =/

I believe I use McAfee. But every two hours or so, a little box pops up and tells me that I need to renew my subscription or something.
Oh well.
fena - too cool for anti-virus protection.

I have Spybot and have it set to automatically run itself at 10pm every night, and that seems to keep me pretty well protected, I dont think this computer has an anti-virus

Norton 2007 > virus scanner
Sygate > fire wall
Spybot > Spyware
And I think I have Ad aware too.
But new comp = no viruses at this time.

Will be a future installation, but I am not sure which one to use
