What firewall do you guys recommend? I've been using zone alarm but it does this thing where it freezes my computer. what happens is, a new program opens up and its supposed to open a little window-thing to ask if i want to allow it access to the internet, but it never does... and then my system crashes.
Is there a better firewall out, like blackice or norton?
also, whats a good anti spyware/trojan/virus program? (right now i use spybot-search and destroy for spyware, the cleaner for trojans and mcaffe for virus scan)

thank you for your input
