What's your firewall + anti-apyware + anti-virus combination and what do you think of it. Do you think its the best combination.  I'm just trying to get ideas, i kno there are threads like this but not for all three in one. I just got a new laptop and for now i'm using:

windows firewall + windows defender + avg ant-virus

[dlewis23]

On my computers, i use the built in firewall in OSX, and thats it.

On the only windows computer i use that is connected to the internet i don't use any anti virus or anti spyware.

I use Blink (http://eeye.com). It is by far the best windows protection software out there because its not real virus/spyware protection, it just secures your system correctly.

I havent ran a firewall in 9 years and never had trouble yet. A few virus's along the way, nothing to bad. I think there is alot of fear mongering just to sell programs. Not saying someone couldnt fuck with me, but I dont care if they do. My pc has jack shit on it.
