I just installed Windows 7 home premium 64 bit on my macbook

It's been a while since i was in the windows game.

I need antivirus and a firewall... they need to be free.


Recommendations?

Also, tips on using them while gaming?
 
AV- Microsoft security essentials. One of the best.

Firewall, best ask Joe about that.

As for MSE whilst gaming, mine is on all the time anyway with no noticeable lag
 
I have yet to find anything better than BitDefender, though sadly, it isn't free. They do offer free AV as an on-demand scanner (manual scanning). It works just great if you are in the habit of scanning everything you download (which is a good thing to do even if you have real-time scanning).

As for firewall, I also use BitDefender so I don't really know of any good free ones.
 
I use Avast like Damage and the firewall is the default one from MS, I was using Zonealarm but got tired of all the damn popups it sent me all the time to upgrade this and that... I think it's as good anyways and also, being behind a router is pretty secure anyways, that's my opinion ;)
 
I use MSE and default firewall. Works for anyone that isn't a total noob with computers.
