AVG Anti Virus, Firefox Firewall, XSoft Spyware and Regcure - Is This Enough Protection?

Question

Actually, my heading has said it all. I am very afraid of a PC crash and have all the above 'safeguards'. Is there anything else I need to get? I am also very afraid of these programs clashing, as I have read it could happen. Please advise me. I have only the free edition of AVG, does this offer adequate protection? Thanks in anticipation for all the answers I expect.

Update:

Thanks Azrael!!

AVG Anti Virus = good, but not the best
XSoft Spyware and Regcure = crap, lose them
Firefox Firewall = doesn't exist or is a malware - Firefox is a browser and Mozilla (the company that makes it) don't do firewalls.
Use these instead (you need them all and use as recommended):
browser - http://www.opera.com/  - replace that IE junk
antivirus - http://www.avast.com/
antispyware - http://www.microsoft.com/downloads/details.aspx?FamilyId=435BFCE7-DA2B-4A6A-AFA4-F7F14E605A0D&displaylang=en

They are all the best in their category and FREE. It's my setup.

I would personally just stick with the Ant-virus (and maybe the spyware) skip the firewall. Use a firewall router (if you have broadband.) Most viruses are written to tell the spyware to iggy them anyway. And the firewall is in the same boat. The best way to not get them in the first place.
