Antivirus and Firewall both are different program for different purpose.

A firewall is a software componet that regulates the internet use of programs already installed on your system. Most firewalls do only that. An Аntivirus software consists of computer programs that attempt to identify, thwart and eliminate computer viruses and other malicious software

Firewalls make it possible to filter incoming and outgoing traffic that flows through your system. A firewall can use one or more sets of “rules” to inspect the network packets

Yeah and the same for people trying to get around the security at their jobs. Ummm, aren't you getting paid to do your job and not goof around on the Internet? I guess they need to start getting fired and the ones that are left might get the message.

A firewall is software or hardware that checks information coming from the Internet or a network, and then either blocks it or allows it to pass through to your computer, depending on your firewall settings.

Antivirus or anti-virus software is used to prevent, detect , and remove malware, including but not limited to computer viruses , computer worm and adware. This page talks about the software used for the prevention and removal of such threats, rather than computer security implemented by software methods.
