I forgot that the router acts as a firewall, too. How does that work? I never have figured it out.
And you say Vista has added protection? Guess we'll find out on the 30th.

Believe it or not, but the XP SP2 firewall is more than adequate for protecting against inbound attacks.  The only reason there's an issue is because either people turn it off, or they download infected junk from P2P networks which can then communicate outbound.  But in the latter case the user has chosen to run that program.

INRE the Kapersky scan, my Malwarebytes reported a malware in it:
http://www.malwarebytes.org/malwarenet.php?name=Rootkit.Agent.H

Kapersky tech has been queried and I will Poast the reply.
Will query Malwarebytes, as well.
