As with all things, it depends.
I don't run any sort of anti-virus or firewall on my Windows PC.
I -do- have a nice hardware router that blocks all incoming connection attempts.
I -don't- use Internet Explorer as my browser. I use Firefox.
I -don't- use Outlook for my email. I use Thunderbird.
I -don't- click on any random attachements that come up in my email. And even if I did, I use Thunderbird. It won't execute attachments.
And I've never gotten infected with anything.
