WinRoute Pro - Extra Firewall Needed

I am testing the latest version of Winroute Pro, and am wondering about firewalls. Their website says WinRoute Pro has a built in firewall. Do I need to run ZoneAlarm or BlackIce in addition to Winroute? Do I need to specifically set anything special in Winroute? Thanks...
 
WinRoute's firewall is much more difficult to configure than ZoneAlarm or BlackIce. It is rule based, so unless you have configured a rule based firewall before (like ipfw in FreeBSD), I'd suggest not messing with it. If you do want to play around with it though, look around the menus for "Packet Filtering."

Thanks for the info. I went to www.grc.com and everything tested out as "stealth" mode, including the port probe. Should I take this as good enough evidence that I am safe? Thanks again....
