re: Practicing Safe Computing
I just added two new programs to my canned text, Online Armor firewall, and Malwarebytes' Anti-Malware. Both have often been highly recommended by many of my trusted colleagues here at D-A-L and should have been included earlier.

You only need one firewall, and after using ZoneAlarm for years, I now use, and am happy with Comodo. I also use Windows Firewall on two other machines and am happy with that too. However, I have tried, tested, and have no problem recommending Online Armor, or the previously listed Kerio.

I have added the free version of Malwarebytes' Anti-Malware (MBAM) to my own arsenal and use that for supplemental scanning. Should I become unhappy with my paid version of SUPERAntiSpyware, MBAM will most likely be my next choice.
