Okay, I have Mcafee Anti virus right now. I have Vista to. Im going to keep mcafee, im not getting rid of it or changing. So I wanted to Know A Good firewall & a good Anti-Spyware software I should Get. I was thinking Comodo Firewall, but Then I would have to DISABLE My mcafee Firewall right? And then I wasnt sure if comodo would be alright to have with mcafee. So-Anti-Spyware & Firewall that would all work w/ mcafee.
Thanks
(please dont recomend a different anti-virus)

I use webroot spy sweeper and it's the best anti-spyware program I have. It costs $10-$20. If you want a free anti spyware it's called spybot search and destroy and thats also great.

Only mcafee security suite has a firewall.
Yes comodo is the best free firewall.
For antispyware I could recommend Spybot and SUPERANTISPYWARE….
In the installer of spybot make sure you untick the security center.Don't forget to update before scanning with both of these.

Funny, the first thing I was going to recommend was a different /better antivirus.. You should at least consider Norton or Kaspersky, as no others come close. And both suites come with excellent antispyware and firewall capabilities to boot. But no matter. =)
Comodo is a good firewall, and I've read of no compatibility issues with McAfee. You'd have to disable your McAfee firewall, yes. As far as antispyware, personally I've had good results with Counterspy and Spyware Doctor. Webroot Spy Sweeper is a decent choice as well. All three are well-regarded, tested programs. Counterspy is about $10 cheaper then the other two, and is fairly good with system resources, though Spyware Doctor usually ranks tops in testing by most "experts" (PC Magazine, PC World, etc). For what that's worth.
One of those three antispyware programs to go with *cough cough* McAfee, and Comodo, and you'd have it pretty well rounded out.
