In which case, the standard Windows firewall is "strong enough," granted this is a PC we're talking about and not a server. In either case, if the port is open, you obviously will need it open in the software firewall, as well.


The difference is that if there's no software firewall, the opened port will not appear stealth, but closed on online firewall test. A firewall like KPF 2.1.6 let you select what kind of packet you want from what port for which IP with a specific application, so if it's turned off, the port is stealth.
