Sorry for the top post, stuck with IE at work which crashes if I try to edit anything in webmail.
I have gone virtual with my test network. run Linux as the host OS for virtual machines, then have different vitruals for different OS's. make a snapshot of the vitrual before messing with it then I can easily roll back whatever I decide to break/infect the virtual with. Go here http://www.vmware.com/products/player/ and try a couple.
You can run vmware under windows but its so much slower under windows than under Linux that I highly recommend doing it under Linux.
