Recommendable AV/Firewall?

post #1 of 4
Thread Starter 
So my license for ESET is going out in a week and I was wondering if there is anything better than ESET out on the market that is about the same price or a reasonable price. But obviously performance is more important to me than price. Any recommendations? Or ESET fine?

Also, I use firefox with noscript and all that good stuff. I am noticing that alot of websites are starting to add googleapis.com script. They won't function correctly without it. And I don't like that, especially google with their data mining. Is it ok to allow or should I try to stay away from that?

Avast! or MSE Antivirus both free solutions.
Avast needs to be registered with a email once a year, and MSE needs a Genuine version of Windows.

Comodo Firewall has always been well for me and works without a hiccup.

Hope it helps smile.gif

I use Kaspersky 2012 Internet Security, It appears to be solid but I have found some rules/exceptions need to be setup manually for things like my VPN to work better.
