Depends on the firewall and which way you are going. Turn on the Windows XP firewall, allow no exceptions for maximum safety and use your computer. Nothing else needs to be adjusted. You will be able to send/receive email, surf the Internet (web). If you need to share folders on your Local Area Network (not the Internet) - be sure you are behind a NAT raouter and setup the firewall so File and Printer sharing is allowed for your local area network. For Remote Desktop INTO the computer from the Internet - you'll need to configure your router to forward port 3389 to your computer and open the Remote Desktop exception through the firewall. In other words - don't over-complicate things. -- Shenan Stanley MS-MVP -- How To Ask Questions The Smart Way http://www.catb.org/~esr/faqs/smart-questions.html |
