Do I want to check the INTERNET CONNECTION FIREWALL on my XPHome system?

If you're not going to run a better firewall (such as ZoneAlarm) you should (IMO) definitely turn it on. I have read in several places on the net that the XP firewall can be easily defeated but it's certainly better than nothing. Would you leave the door to your house unlocked at night or leave your keys in the ignition when you park your car?
