Default Antivirus for win98se

Have a laptop finally running and need an AV program. (See Invalid
Hibernation partition/file???)
Running AVG on all other systems(XP) but 98se can't handle 7.5 or 8.0...
Would also like to load a firewall program, currenly running ZA on other
systems also.

Any suggestions please,

For AV, get Avast!. I don't generally run firewalls, so I'll keep my mouth
shut on that one.

Thanks.
Thought I'd better get an AV program on here before I screw this system up.

Avast! has a free Home Edition. You have to re-register for the free one
each year, but that's the only nag.

OK, well have fun with it, s. Still wish I knew how the tech fixed the
system so that it would get past BIOS.
