Firewall and virus scan

I have McAfee virus scan.  Why do I need firewall?  I connect to the internet via dialup modem. 

Thanks.

Even with a dialup connection, there are many things that can happen that will not be detected by antivirus software.

This article, also linked below, and some of the other links below under "Network safety links", should help you understand the risks of not running a firewall product.
