Gaming/Home Work PC AntiVirus/Firewall

[MrG]

Hey GUys. Suggestions?

Was thinking Comodo so far since it worked well on my old machine.

Is Comodo multi-core optimized? Any other recommendations?

I've been using Comodo on one of my machines - works like a bomb. Not sure if its multi core though? But you should hardly notice any performance effects anyway.

If your willing to pay also have a look at Nod32.

If it's for the PC in your sig just get Microsoft Security Essentials for antivirus (it's free), and use standard Windows Firewall for firewall.

We use MSE in our work environment of 50+ computers and so far have had nothing but good experiences with it, and the built-in Firewall in Windows 7 is much improved over the version in XP.

Comodo for firewall (disable the anti-virus portion when installing)
Avira for Anti-virus
