If I have a NAT router, should I use a software firewall too? Please let me know.

thx

Yes you should. Most software firewalls today have program control which will benefit you and your online safety. As well as that software firewalls protect you from stuff on your computer that may "call back home".

It's the belt & suspenders thing,one does the job but two give added protection.I never used to run a software firewall because I have a router,but now I do use a software firewall as well because I feel safer.
My vote goes to .....use both
