Linux friendly Win antivirus firewalls/antivirus?

[Ronald Willis]

GRC independent test. I personally like Sygate.

As for Zone Alarm, if memory serves me it installs spyware...and in past
versions had a trojan exploit. Read this before you decide to install it. If
you already have, and its your first firewall, you might want to check for
spyware too.

My vote is for zone alarm as well.  I have read docs where certain security
issues get right past black ice - I have no real experience with norton but
zone alarm offers a free version for home pc's.
