Which firewall, and which antivirus? Include the name and the version.

Its possible that disabling the AV or the firewall isn't entirely stopping them. Killing the process is not likely to be a good approach, as both should have protections against that built in by design. If they didn't, a malware author would find it very easy to circumvent the protection by simply killing the appropriate process.

Often times with firewalls you need to use a gaming mode, or open the ports used by the game.

I'd suggest reading the user manual for both packages, particularly any sections about gaming. Then google the ports needed by Dayz to work. Unfortunately, I don't know what they are.

Hopefully this post might point you in the right direction.

virus protection takes up cpu which will slow your game down. in your case, you must disable this when you are playing
