Answer 4

For my antivirus I use and recommend Avast:

> Avast 4 Home Edition: http://www.avast.com/eng/download-avast-...

For my firewall I use and recomend the (free) Comodo Firewall Pro, but if you are not very experienced, the Zone Alarm Free Firewall is probably a little easier to work with for beginners.

> Zone Alarm Free Firewall: http://www.zonealarm.com/store/content/c...

And for on-demand antispyware, I use and recommend the free versions of Superantispyware and Malwarebytes Anti-Malware.
