I've seen longg threads of best firewall debates on many forums, and always lots of people saying they don't need a software firewall cause they have a router which is a hardware firewall, but I've seen some say you still need one even with a router cause a router wont block outgoing connections.
Soo, if that made any sense, I hope it did, I finally bought a router today, a wired Linksys router, because I needed to split my connection for another PC, was very easy to setup and configure all working with no problems at all.
My only question now, whose right, and do I still need a software firewall at all, I still use Sygate, now that I have a router? And how good IS the protection from a router's hardware firewall?
