I have a router, do I need a firewall?

[Dark_Angel]

At the moment I am running a Netgear router, along with Sygate Personal Firewall, but now they have been taken over by the evil of norton, I am considering just ditching the firewall all together. My only concern is that I kind of like the firewall, because it stops programs accessing the internet without permission (great if a worm happens to get past my AVG).

So basically, am I being far to paranoid here? or should I just ditch Sygate now its not going to be updated any longer, and grab Zone Alarm free?

Well, I am guessing for now I may as well keep the firewall. Its not like its doing any harm apart from taking a few MB of ram. Though I have to admit I am a tad worried at keeping Sygate, especially now its no longer being updated. Anyone think its a good idea to make the switch?
