Grisoft's AVG Free Edition

Sygate Personal Firewall (limited free edition, but I've been using it for 3 years with no problem)

I'd also recommend upgrading to 2000 or XP.

For spyware I'd recommend:

Spybot Search & Destroy
Lavasoft's Ad-Aware SE
Microsoft's AntiSpyware (Beta)

The MS one is handy as it has a real-time checker, but you'd need Win2000 or XP.

Go for Win2000 instead if you can't get more ram - W2k isn't quite as resource hungry as XP.
