anti-virus needed

hello everyone..

i own a pc which runs on windows "vista"..

i hav NOD-32 version 2.7 as my antivirus scanner..

but it lacks a suitable firewall and anti-spyware..no intrusion alert n all..

so can u recommend a freeware for VISTA tat has antivirus+antispyware+firewall..

pls do help..

Looking at the youtube video and the pcmag review looks like two very different results. I would have to put more weight on the pcmag review. But who knows. I would say assassin will have to checkout the acticles on this site. Best Free Antivirus, Best Free Adware/Spyware Remover, and Best Free Firewall. Should be able to get a combo that works great. Also see Gizmo's Guide to Securing Your PC
Or assassin try comodo and let us know what you think.

The Norton 2009 range have been getting v.good reviews.

Comodo has just came out with a free Internet Security Suite. Comodo Firewall is very strong. You do get a lot of pop-ups with it when you first install. After awhile it calms down some. I haven't used the Internet Security from Comodo but the few tests I've seen have been ok. Check out this test on you tube

Comodo AV & AS just don't seem so good... maybe that's the reason why Comodo has not submitted them for independent testing. And it also seems to have a significant impact on performance. See this recent PCmag review and testing, comparing it with several AV and Security Suites: http://www.pcmag.com/article2/0,2817,2333811,00.asp

PS.: interesting video, though, installing Comodo on a highly infected system !
