As far as I know, the free version of AVG does not have a firewall. I use the Windows firewall and it seems to work well. I really like Microsoft's Security Essentials for antivirus and malware. It is free as well.

There is no firewall in AVG free. See here: http://free.avg.com/ww-en/download-avg-anti-virus-free#axzz0bv3100LKThus please just keep Windows Firewall on.
