It's up to you. I use Windows Firewalls with a modem on all systems. But if you say you're happy with your firewall, why change?

Be that as it may, the OP already said he's happy with it.

The OP could try disabling the OA Firewall and enabling Windows Firewall to see whether he notices any difference in performance.
