    AVG is the best

    software firewalls can be very limiting..

    for home use the avg is fine,...

    or better if you have a cable modem... get a router (not a hub) and you'll be in business..

    A router is great. I use one with the windows firewall and have not had any problems yet.

    AVG, Norton, and McAfee are all decent programs.
