I am using only NAV 2006 (not NIS) and ZoneAlarm security Suite.Does NAV have any firewall protection?I don't know that's why I have installed ZoneAlarm for fire wall protection.If I need Norton firewall protection then which S/w is needed.Is norton firewall better than ZoneAlarm (also considering anti virus,spyware etc protection).Also is there any pro to have more than one security S/w just like NAV and ZoneAlarm.

ya it has feature of worm protection that acts as a firewall.
Windows Security Centre recognizes it & you can see it by yourself.
But not sure if it provides full protection like personal firewall.
And considering spyware protection, nav2006 is the best i can recommend.
