    As long as you update it, Windows Firewall works really well. Also, Norton Antivirus is good on Vista, or so I've heard.

    For the time being, windows firewall is more than enough. If you're worried about viruses.. think about this.. the only way you'll get any is gonna be your fault if you have windows firewall. I'm saying that you'll be fine with just windows firewall, but you can still catch viruses, but only if your stupid enough to download or click on some shit... just be vigilant on to what you're doing on the internet and not only won't you need a third party firewall, but you won't even need an anti virus..

    I, personally, have given up on antiviruses.. they slow down my pc when I really don't need them... especially with vista. Ever since I've had this pc I haven't gotten a single virus. (had it for a year)

    If you still don't feel safe, use bitdefender.

    firewalls dont really have anything to do with viruses.
