Not legally, no. They have a free version of their firewall but that's all. For your AV your best bet is Nod32 or Kaspersky in that order. Nod is the best and costs less than Kaspersky.
Nod32 is a little more complicated but has the best detection rate on the market especially for new viruses that don't have signature available yet.
For a free AV solution try AVG or Avast. They are good, just not in the same league as Nod or Kas even with the paid-for editions.

It use to be that you could get better protection if you combined security programs and made your own security suite. That hasn't been the case now for a couple of years. The security suites run everything together, and offer good protection. As good as you can get from combining programs. This is other thing that users who aren't up on current security tests don't know. AVG free is not good protection. You have the paid version of AVG which is better. I've used it and it did a good job. But it's detection rate is much lower than many of the other anti-virus programs. Norton, Nod32, Avast, Avira, Kaspersky and several others. So you might want to think about that. I usually don't put much weight on a one percent difference. But in the case of AVG it's 7 or 8 percent. That's alot. Everything else you have looks good. I think if you are not using AVG link scanner. You should get WOT (Web of Trust) for your browser. Plus you have Malwarebytes which is something everyone should have. I checked out Verizon internet Security and could not find out want anti-virus engine they are using, so without knowing that I can't really give you a answer on that. With your current set up, if you where to switch anti-virus program when your time is up I think you have a protection that is better than many users. I'm not trying to dog AVG, as I said it did a good job when I had it. But it's detection rate is a real concern.

As far as I know, Zone alarm is rated as one of the best. Hope this helps you.

To look up for your software go to www.cnet.com you will be able to download your software from there. Als take a look at Adaware from Lavasoft.
