I am currently behind a router and I am using Windows' in-built Firewall.

Is this enough or do I need to reinstall my copy of Zone Alarm Pro ?

well, i would strongly suggest you running spyware blaster. Its a program that protects your computer from known maliciouse sites by adding them to the blocked sites in IE and FF. its free, and all you have to do it manually update it once a week at most. it doesnt run in the background, so it doesnt use up resources. Do you have an antivirus? and I like Outpost Free firewall (less buggy than ZA and uses less resources).

Where is enough?
Where do you draw the line?

NEVER ENOUGH!

Unplug the network cord and power off! :D
