I use www.zonealarm.com (Their free firewall). In my opinion it is the very best firewall with state of the art technology. Plus you will get all new versions via automatic update free of charge.
My antivirus system is used by the Government of China.
Being a clinical psychiatrist I have a moral and legal obligation to keep my pc 100% clean from all virus/spyware/malware.
I tested every free and purchase antivirus system known. An I found only one that actually works 100%. Never had a virus or spyware in my system in nine years.
Go to, www.filseclab.com and download thier Twister AntiTrojan Virus program. (You will have to pay a small one time fee). You will never have to pay an annual fee for updates, support or new versions. The one time fee is for life. ($29.99)
The software company is located in Beijing, China. They have excellent support, frequent large signature updates an as always all new versions are free. No annual fee for anything.
Comes with a real time scanner that really works. Actually I am quite amazed over the nine years how well it works.
Scans memory on startup.
Real time scanning in the background.
Open any webpage with an embedded trojan/spyware or malware and scanner will clean on the spot. An It is really removed from your system.
Download any kind of program from zips, all compressed files, software files, music, etc,etc, an if there is a hidden embedded trojan,spyware,malware, this program will stop the download and clean. An will advise you to end the download.
Will even find a virus in the installer wizard, like "Wise Installer". And will stop the installation while it is being installed and clean. Plus this program always will trace back who installed the trojan.
I had a trojan in and wizard installer. Twister caught the trojan and stopped the installation. I wrote the origianl company and told them the wizard installer had an embedded trojan to steal your data. The company now uses thier own installer.
You can't beat this software for a one time purchase fee only. Actually I don't know of any antivirus progam that even comes close to this state of the art technology.
All I can say it is worth the one time fee. Your pc cost alot of money and you don't want it destroyed. Plus your privacy is protected at all times.
There is nothing in it for me to praise this program. I tell it like it is. If it is garbage then I will say so.

I would go with CA Antivirus and Firewall since the Firewall is the same as zone alarms and it work well together. It called Security Suite. Know they have Internet Security with the Spam and spyware protection...

This falls into the category of opinions and a'ssholes; everybody has one. Rather than coming here and asking questions of people; most of whom are no more knowledgable than yourself, do some reading on sites like Cnet or Annoyances.org and armed with that info and your own knowledge, make your own decision.
I happen to like Computer Associates, but you may hate that. I don't really like Zone Alarm, but it is their model that CA builds their firewall upon, and I like the overall CA suite. Go figure! See what I'm saying? It's really up to you.

The best is the one you have to use the least! Avoid using it by not doing foolish things that could infect your computer.
In terms of actual anti-viruses and firewires, I always like free ones. Avast, and the one the firewall that comes with windows XP.

hi, perhaps you can try Norton to remove the virus and protect your PC. but you need to pay for the software
i recommand you to use firefox with Google toolbar. firefox can disable all virus to run, because the virus can only run on IE.
besides, firefox can block any any poppus and disable any virus and adware, spyware on webpage, so, firefox is much safer than IE. as you know, most of the virus is spread throught internet and webpage.
firefox is much smaller than IE, so i run faster than IE.
download firefox for free:

I don't know a ton about computer security, but someone who does know a lot about it set me up with Norton Internet Security and it has worked well so far.
