How do I do it?
I want to setup my home network for two desktops and two laptops all
running XP-Home SP2.
I am using a linksy router (wireless for the laptops, cat5 for the
desktops) connected to the Internet though a cable modem.
I understand networking (file & printer sharing) opens up the computers
to vulnerabilities from the Internet.
Each computer runs it's own security setup (either McAfee or Trend
Micro)
Is there a way to secure the network a one point (like the router) or
what other options do I have.
