    Same here, Kaspersky and FireFox are protecting my computers.

    If you know your way around the web, you can not get any viruses at all. First install Firefox and bump IE deep into your folders. Install Adblocker and don't go to dodgy websites or download any 'toolbars' etc. and you'll be fine.

    There is no particular firewall of IE. All windows have a default system firewall.

    You can try comodo or zoneAlaram firewall. Both are free.
