A guy I know in Australia is the Asia Pacific distributor for Rising
Antivirus. I naturally got a free copy and have been running it for over a
year now, and as far as I am concerned, it totally outdoes Nortons, AVG
(even tho its free-ish) and the others.

Take a look at http://www.risingantivirus.com.au/

Have used F-Prot AV (low overhead).  Tried also Norton and Eset Nod-32.

Nod-32 looked to be by far the best AV program, expensive but low overhead
(I think its written in assembler).

Avast and AVG also seem good enough...  Avast is a bit of a CPU hog.

Firewalls - tried:

ZoneAlarm - excellent until it locked up after a few months after an update
and uninstalling and reinstalling could not fix it.

Kerio v2.15 (an old version) which gets good press for being low overhead
and low memory footprint.  Eventually seemed to cause email time-outs with a
new router.

Commodo - Excellent.  Free for commercial use.  Gets better reviews than all
the paid for ones too.  Low memory and cpu overhead.

With some of these you can leave the Windows Firewall on too (XP anyway).
Can't be too safe eh!

John
