did I miss anything Security wise?

I don't see a router with a good firewall, and I don't see firewall software on your PC.

On the bottom of my Freeper Home Page are these three links to the best internet security sites I've found:

The best site for keeping your PC safe from spam, viruses, spyware and other security hazards on the internet is FirewallGuide.com.
The best site for help setting up home and small business networks, and for networking equipment recommendations and reviews is PracticallyNetworked.com. Post your questions to their online forums.
The best site to explain the technology and terms of home networking is CERT's Home Network Security.

You also need to have active spyware and virus and firewall software running all the time in your PC, as well as automatic nightly scans for spyware and viruses.

It has gotten dramatically worse during the last year.

Thanks much, my Sygate is showing that *everything* is blocked, no open ports, I passed stealth scan trojan scan all w/ flying colors.

I guess I need to got to Circuit city and get a Router.

Bummer, here I thought i was all |33+ and stuff.

If you scan me again, would you fr mail me the results just for S&G? thnx...
