Hi Folks
I am using Win Pro XP and currently use Avast Anti-virus, Sunbelt Firewall and Malwarebytes.
Is it better to install one program which incorporates all these features? and if so any suggestions of one that is reasonably fast when scanning and does not use too much memory?

No I like what you already have, the only thing I would add is Mozilla Firefox.

Add-ons for Firefox to look at are NoScript, Adblock Plus and Adblock Filter.G Updater, Tab Mix Plus, Foxmarks these are just about all the add-ons I ever used and have served me well.
