    I've got McAfee, ZoneAlarms and AVG.

    ZoneAlarms is probably my favourite. So user-friendly and seemingly protective

    Stay away from Symantec, Norton, and McAfee. I'd get either avast or Avira AntiVir, both are free and are more or less better than Symantec, Norton, and McAfee. And I'd get Comodo Firewall Pro for a firewall. It's free as well.

    But yeah, I would really recommend Comodo Firewall Pro. Works like a charm.
