why have software firewall when you can use a hardware firewall,

Hi Ronnie,
Please do not rely on a hardware firewall on its own - that is a myth - yes its good to have one as a line of defence but you should ALWAYS have a good 2-way software firewall, I say 2-way because the Windows firewall is a 1-way and, again not recommended.
