catlady, i've got cable modem (actually one way cm, using dialup connection upstream and cm downstream), and have been very happy with blackice defender (bid) from networkice. there have been a lot of stability issues cropping up in the last month or so with bid upgrades. very crashy versions were released, but now extra patches seem to have settled things down. i just added norton personal firewall 2000 ("AtGuard, which was bought by Symantec and is sold under a different name now"). npf was just 'unbundled' from norton internet security 2000 and can now be purchased separately. nis includes norton antivirus, something i already have as a part of norton systemworks. gee, can i use the name norton more times in one post? anyway, it's cool running both the firewall AND the intrusion detection system together. i like your idea/plan to use an old box as a hardware firewall. i'd like to eventually do that as well. hope the cable installer shows up soon! :) mark
