It all depends on where/what you're shooting. When I shoot outdoors,
or under particularly rough conditions, I keep a filter up front.
When I'm shooting indoors under more controlled circumstances, I
leave the filter off. 

But the crux of the matter is that the presence or absence of a uv or
skylight filter will never be the make or break factor in a
photograph. Proper exposure, composition, developing, and printing,
not to mention the subject of the photograph will always be greater
factors in the end result. So I wouldn't lose too much sleep over the
presence or absence of a filter up front.
