do I still need a software firewall?

I am using the Linksys Etherfast Cable/DSL Router modem BEFSR41 (the one I think that many people here are using), and I was wondering that on the box and instructions that it says that it provides a hardware firewall. Does that mean that I don't need a software firewall like BlackIce Defender anymore (I used to do everything through a regular hub).

Thanks for any help.

 
Yeah, you should not need that software firewall anymore with the router in place... that hardware firewall offers much more security than any software firewalls... plus you run the risk that those software firewalls are actually spyware...
