Do I REALLY Need a Firewall?

[Canoris]

You definitely need a firewall because I will use myself as an example. When ever I take down my ESET firewall 163 programs try to attack my computer, but only 42 get in which is still a lot. It doesn't matter if you don't even go on the internet. You can be attacked for any reason even if you don't download stuff, you are still at risk.

Never had that problem... I'd listen to what he said.
