A software firewall will alert you as to what is coming in and out.  But
that's about it.  Usually software firewalls are a little easier to
configure, depending on what you are using.  In the consumer world they are,
but the industrial routers have capabilities that would make ya drool! ;)

You did?  Delete McAfee?  Use AVG and/or Sygate?

Can a software firewall do anything that a hardware firewall would miss?

I did too. And also behind the firewall built into my LinkSys router.

Dear list:
I got a new machine that came pre-loaded with McAfee.  It seems to be pretty
well laced into the whole OS.  I'm considering removing the entire thing.
I'll put in AVG for anti-virus and Sygate for firewall.
