I find the free utilities a lot better than the paid for ones like norton as they tend not to be as bloated and less resource heavy. I have also found that Sygate is a far better and more stable firewall than Zonealarm. Granted I havent used zonalarm in over a year, but Sygate does such a good job i wouldnt go back unless they really messed up a revision.

Always good to stick with what works, and yes, using an alternative browser will reduce the risk of exploitative virus infection, until VXers start to target non standard browesers.
