WinXP ICS firewall recommendation

Hi
any1 knows a good firewall (with aniti virus) that works with WinXP ICS (internet connection sharing)

was thinking of getting McAffee (was £25 at PCworld)
but it seems it doesnt support ICS (according to support forums)
does Norton support it?
i know its a system hogger but its well priced (think i can get it for £25 aswell)
what other should i consider??

i know ill be better off using a router then using ICS
i'll be buying a wireless router soon
so i can connect other comp which is too far from current hub to use RJ45
but i just recenctly brought a new comp
so i dont want to use too much money for the time being


EDIT:
just saw theres a anti-virus sub-forums
sorry mods
please move this thread over

Moved, no idea of the best solution for your needs though.

What's wrong with free?

WinXP SP2 has a built-in firewall which is fine for most needs, and I use the free version of Avast for AV.
