I am hooking up a cable box to an LCD TV. Which is the preferred connection, S-video or AV?

If by "AV" you're referring to "composite video" (a single RCA-jack connection, typically color-coded yellow), then I'd say that S-Video is going to be distinctly superior in almost all cases.
S-Video and composite video are both video-only connections. You'll need a separate audio connection (usually dual RCA jacks, red and white).

Which has the better comb filter, the TV or the cable box? How far is the TV from the cable box?

Scart lead with Cable box set to RGB, as long as the TV supports RGB and most modern do. (noted you said HDMI not an option)
