If you only need inbound protection, then Windows FW is good enough.

I prefer to have outbound also, that's why i use other fw.

Inbound means the data is sent out from your computer. Means it's by the user side of connection. Outbound means tat data or connection from outside world trying to get into your pc. Correct me if i'm wrong guys?

Inbound = connection initiated by outside world
Outbound = connection initiated by yourself

Take note, it is connection, not data flow.
