The only reason I recommend that one is I *KNOW* it has the firewall
built in.
If you don't have one already, you really should look at getting a
strong HOSTS file to complement your anti-virus & firewall.

I found this years ago, and it really works.

Sounds like AVAST for virus protection is what I'll be doing

Been happy with it.. but then I got their newsletter
and an article leads with this:
"Microsoft Ends Support of Windows XP
Old operating systems that are no longer supported are a BIG threat.
After April 8, 2014, running Microsoft Windows XP is a public health
risk to the Internet. Because so many people are still using Windows XP
everyone could be at risk."
then it danced into an elaborate article - scare tactic style. geez.
one reader wrote "sure , send me $500 and I'll switch.."
Now what was that about getting a router for a firewall?

This is the firewall/router I'm currently using:
