Harlan, maybe but that combo works like a charm and its fast.
Gdata for AV purposes
Zonealarm for Firewall(actually because its own firewall driver)
Spyshelter mainly for anti-keyloggin
OSArmor for bloking powershell etc scripts
Sure i've "tuned" them so there's no "overlapping" popups.
With above combo, cpu time is 1-2 %. It just work and im quite happy with it :)

Gery79 chill down and get a cookie :) Seriously, it depends on the hardware and other softwares installed etc. Actually Avira was extremely heavy on my PC, but i've heard that its very light on other ppl computers. I think the same goes for Trend Micro(and others).

I do like how Gdata improved their own engine(deepray). Its deepray, according to Virustotal samples "catch" samples that Bitdefender never heard of. The same is Emsisoft and Fabian "Fabulous" Wosar. Or just a "Fab" :D Crazy talented person with a "white hat" :)
