Do I need to install Windows Firewall even if I have Zone Alarm to protect my PC from "Blaster Worm"?

I have all the Critical Updates installed. Is there anything else I need to patch with? Thanks.

If I`m not mistaken windows firewall is installed automaticaly with windows,but you can turn this feature on or off,if you`ve got za then I would leave windows firewall turned off.If you`ve got the latest updates for windows,may want to make sure your antivirus scanner is updated as well then you should be okay and ready to go.
