Is it bad to run two firewalls at once?

Hello! I have installed Norton firewall and Zone Alarm firewall on my system. My friend told me that it is dangerous, because I have two firewalls at same time. I think that he is wrong. I mean, I am safer with two of them, then with one. Anyway, I am contacting you just to confirm me that I am right. Thank you!

Hello! I cannot confirm you that you are right, because you are not; but, on the other hand, your friend is. If you running two firewalls at same time, they may be in conflict, so, in that case you are staying without appropriate protect. I suggest you to pick only one and run just it. Hope you will listen to me!
