    I've recently started to use Windows 7 and am wondering if I should content myself with the windows firewall or get a full-featured one to replace it. I was reading somewhere on the net that the combination of the windows one and UAC control was sufficient for the average user.

    Opinions anyone? :)

    Win 7 firewall is fine but if you want more control or extra stuff like process monitor etc. then look for another firewall.

    I am using Private Firewall & am pretty satisfied with it.
