Is a McAfee personal firewall needed?

With all the hoopla about this new virus, which I somehow avoided , but my wife has been going nuts trying to get rid of , I'm thinking about the $15 offer from McAfee to purchase their personal firewall. I updated today and they sent it to me. Aside from message boards, an occassional ICQ chat, I don't really frequent chat rooms and the like.

John whats the dope on this stuff, but don't talk Bill Gates, I need it in english...lol. I also have a somewhat slow Gateway Solo 9100, compared to what's out there now, so I don't want to bog down with stuff running in the background. In fact I've eliminated must of my stuff from the start up, even the McAfee virus . Never have it running so I don't know why I bothered to update, but I did a scan while I was out today and no infections luckily.
