Why would one want to use software rather than a hardware firewall?

I use and like McAfee Firewall.  I remember reading an article somewhere
that there were two firewall software that was recommened, zone alarm and
then this other one.  Couldn't find it because basically McAfee bought
them out.  Great package, does everything I want it to do.  You can tell
it what ports to open.  You can ban ips, setup trusted ips, etc.  If you
get the Firewall+, you can do a trace on that ip address and it'll show
you (roughly) where it is in the world.
