I don't use any of the AV/AM/AS's you mention. I couldn't tell you if they live well together. I hate AVG so bad just had to tell you. It looks so cheap and nasty. I would advise Avast or Avira (both good freeware) and a few antispyware progs. Some AV's live well together, other's don't; most of the time they think one another is a virus/infection which can cause problems.
-Zone Alarm Pro is the go, you hit that one on the head.
Avast has a real time scanner and if you try download an infected file that it knows about it will prompt you with a siren warning and a mans voice saying "warning a virus has been detected".
Overall i can say nothing but good things about it so far, hasn't failed me like AVG did once upon a time, but that's another bedtime story i will save for later.
AV/AM: Avast, Avira, Kaspersky (not free)
AS: i like a variety of the freebies.
Firewall: I use the same firewall you have Zone Alarm Pro.
Keep it all up to date and you shouldn't have many problems, i don't
