and get a small router with built in hardware firewall. If you are on a cable modem without firewall anyone can go into your computer play whatever they want. XP has a built-in firewall but that slows certain things down considerably. These routers are not expensive, $50-70 should get you something decent and then, not even the cable company can see what you have running.
