grc.com has some useful stuff, not all of it free.
They do however offer a very good free firewall test called Shields-Ups.

I think that may have been the MS publicity machine, as he was quite negative about their stuff. Still writes some very small and neat code

I've found completely the reverse - used to use Sygate, but the last update just wouldn't work and kept crashing, so I switched to ZoneAlarm and haven't had any problems.

I found ADAWARE actually contains ad viruses itself. IMO an AVAST Schedual reboot will clean your machine.

It doesn't contain viruses but because of the actions it takes in system scanning it causes false alarms with some virus scanners.
