Netgear and McAfee

I just purchased Netgear WGR614DLNA and McAfee Wireless Home Network Security 2006 came with it. Do I really need to install the McAfee software or is the Netgear's security good enough?
Any feedback is appreciated.

Netgear's security will protect you from incoming attacks.   The McAfee security will also protect you from attacks that originate on the computers on your network and attempt to send something out.  Such attacks could occur if you happened to somehow download a trojan virus designed to collect and send things out from your computers.  For complete security, you need both.
