Yep...
And I would like to add, people running Windows Firewalls and thinking they are safe, well guess what your not. It does not check outgoing c0nn, so run a real firewall.
Or let's say you download a program there might be a botnet in it, not being detected by a virusscanner.. WIndows firewall will just let it trough.
Windows Firewall, does block most worms/trojans. but incomming obviously. (think of msblaster at that time).
Running a Hardware firewall ( like a router is a plus), but a software firewall is needed.
