Whut he said, but for the most part ur set...i just got zonealarm and i love it to death..plus i just got avast! after using norton for a year, now i have it on both my computers, my gfs computer and will be throwing it on every single computer my family has.
 
get a router that supports a hardware firewall and NAT, problem solved. Just be careful downloading stuff and opening up emails. Then just keep your AV software and drop your software based firewalls.

Looks good. You can probably go without CCleaner and AdAware SE. However, some would prefer AdAware over Spywareblaster. But, as for CCleaner, you don't really need to use it too much. Probably when you really need it, but it's good to have.

Other than that, the next thing to look at is your browser. For better security, switch over to Firefox or Opera if you haven't already.
