Windows 10: The Three Firewalls

In settings, Windows Security, Firewall & network protection, there are three firewalls; one for a Domain network, one for a Private network, and one for a Public network.My machine is not part of a domain; never has been, never will be. So I turned that firewall off.Now, every once in a while I get a notification that "my firewall is off" directing me to turn it on.Why?

Good Antivirus + Firewall

I would never put anything Norton on my computer.

Nod32 is arguably the best antivirus. AVG is likely not as good, but it's free and at least pretty good.

Firewalls, I'd put Comodo and whatever "Tiny Personal Firewall" is named nowadays on your short list. I think Kerio might have sold it now and it's named something else. Otherwise, just put Comodo on your short list. I think the current version's ease of use has taken a step backwards, seems a bit counter-intuitive when trying to do certain things with it, but overall it does a good job and the price is right.

Best free AV and firewall

Can Windows Firewall block outgoing connections yet? If not, it's one step above useless.

Look into Online Armor for a free firewall.
