What is the best way to keep my computer well protected?

An internet security specialist from the FBI came to my workplace for a seminar on internet security and safety. He advised on the urgency of having a good Anti-Virus and a minimum of 3 anti-spywares (he said he keeps anywhere from 5-10 on his home computers). He also recommended 2 free Anti-viruses as being among the best he has ever used. They are AVG and Avast. Is it possible to run more than one Anti-Virus? He said no, but I have had both Norton and McAfee at the same time.

Also, is there anything else I need other than a good anti-virus, several anti-spywares, and a good firewall (I currenyly use both WIndows and Webroot firewalls)? Thank you.
