Help me choose the right Anti-Virus - Overclock.net

Hello everyone, well OneCare Live which is Microsoft Internet Security Suite has been messing with me lately, at about every 2 restarts, it would tell me to complete the installation, and if I didn't, it would block my access to Instant Messenging and email. I got really sick of it, so now I want to change to something new, I will not go with McAfee because for some reason it prevents me from transfering large files over my LAN, and this problem appear just on Vista. So I am looking for a Security Suite which includes Firewall, Antivirus that can run on Vista x86 without issues. Thanks.

Avast antivirus works fine on Vista and it's free...not sure about a firewall though but I hear the one built in to Vista is pretty good (better than the one in XP anyway).

AVG ftw.

It's free.. i use built in windows firewall, because i'm too lazy to allow programs when i use Comodo.

Panda Antivirus?
I've had it for a long time and i have never got a virus/spyware/adware in my pc.

NOD32 is absolutely amazing. 1 year so far and not 1 virus except for spyware. (My fault)

I decided to give a shot to McAfee because I had a subscription still running that I had forgotten about. So, I'm pretty sure I am unable to transfer files between computers because the Firewall blocks some of my ports, I need help to open what is necessary in order to transfer files. Please look the screenshot.
