Router and Firewall Question

[pmbuzz]

I've just bought a Netgear DG834 and got it set up on my main PC with a view to connecting my daughters via wireless at the weekend.

My question is do i still need to have ZoneAlarm installed now that i have the router or can i safely uninstall it and rely on the routers hardware firewall?

You need a software firewall to block outgoing

Provided you exercise some common sense, it isn't necessary - just might be a good idea.
