I have a hardware firewall (on my Linksys router) and use Norton Antivirus. I have never had a problem with this setup.

Trend Micro's PC-Cillin Internet Security Suite. I'm switching from Norton System Werks Premier 2005, to PC-Cillin for a month to "try it before I buy it" images/smilies/lol.gif

So far I like it. images/smilies/biggrin.gif

Common sense + a router + Zone Alarm 4.5 for outgoing protection.

I'm using Norton Internet Security 2005 until my trial runs out, but F-Secure Internet Security 2005 is the best program out there simply because it covers 9/10 security threats (it doesn't have a privacy component), which is more than any other out there currently.
