Sean, Thank you for the links. Winproxy looks like the leader so far, but since they all have trial versions I'll check them out. I hope you were suggesting I do either number one or number two of your suggestions. If I put up a dedicated gateway with two NICs and firewall software and you'd still think it necessary to disable TCP/IP on the local network then the firewall isn't fully accomplishing it's intended purpose. As far as Netware is concerned, I realize that it is overkill for a home network, but I checked out the Novell site after posting here. Netware 5 and Border Manager look like very capable products and a substantial improvement over Netware 4. I ordered eval copies of both. Just call it technical curiousity. CL
