Out with Norton Internet Security; In with Freeware Protection

Norton was frustrating me to no end. The last straw was its interference with Eudora on sending out email to a new address. I just couldn't take it anymore. I blew it away and installed a whole bunch of freeware protection software recommended to me by someone on a Mozilla bulletin board:

Kerio Firewall
Avast! Antivirus
Spybot Search & Destroy
SpywareBlaster and SpywareGuard

I can't believe that Norton has so many problems. I hope that the open source/freeware alternatives afford better protection at a better price (FREE).
