Silly question - Windows firewall

I'm using NOD32 antivirus and the regular ol' Windows firewall, but I don't know anything about firewalls. Is it any good? I'm thinking of installing Sygate. Would you rather have Sygate or the Windows one? Or both?

sygate would be better then the built in firewall and you do not want to run them at the same time.

depends what youre using this machine for?

Just email / browsing the web and you dont keep your machine running 24/7? the built-in XP fwall (past SP1, not the original) is OK enough.

but

if you do more, and i.e. download thru P2P such as torrents/etc? get a real firewall (and PeerGuardian too if you download stuff), because your machine acts as informal server already...
