PG + windoze firewall?

Is Peer Guardian plus XP's own firewall enough or are there gaping holes here I'm ignorant of?

I guess I'm looking for an excuse to stop using ZoneAlarm. The free ZoneAlarm isn't that powerful -- user wise. I can't set my own ports.
 
Alright, Kerio's working out pretty well. Very customizable. Now, anyone know how to get Windows to stop whining because it's firewall isn't turned on?

Windows firewall + properly configured router = all most people really need

Most routers have a built in firewall, so why bother with windows firewall?
If there are any other computers plugged into the router, the router won't protect his computer from them if they become infected with worms. The Windows Firewall or another software firewall can do that, though, as long as they're not misconfigured.
