Most secure Network?
I have {4} PC's all XP [3Pro,1Home].I have cable modem and hub with cards in all puters.Right now I have the modem connected to 1 puter that has 2 cards with the other card connected to hub along with other 3.I have ICS enabled and they all get online.My question is this the most secure way to network them?Also 1 is a Supermicro Sever tower w/dual Zion's and I would like to set it up as network server.Is this possible or even necessary.Son picked up something that destroyed his drive so security is a concern.I would greatly appreciate anyones' thoughts on this as I'm pretty much a newbie on networking.

The security of your network there is decent, assuming you have firewall software on the computer that's directly connected to the Internet. (Windows XP Service Pack 2 comes with a built-in firewall. I don't know how good it is, though.)
You can set any computer up to be a server. What do you want it to do? Also, virus protection is a wonderful investment. Colin
