Comodo firewall and AntiVir PE Classic. I'm using them here and very happy with this combo.

Avast is a great AV because it catches infections in real-time as you surf as well as on-line updates...no scheduled scans needed like the other AV's. The choice is yours

good luck with ZA as it has a lot of issues, that's why I recommended Comodo Firewall

I have the ZA pro on my sons system for 2 years now with no problems , I do agree the Comodo does have a great firewall but thier AV is something to watch out for , It seems to put a bunch of nastys on your system and hog resorces worse than Nortons Personally I use the AVG internet security Suite ,AV, Firewall, Antispyware (Ewido) All in One and so far so good
