I use Win2k on all my machines behind the router. The router has some
firewall like capabilities. BlackIce is on all my machines behind the router
The link below is within the other link I posted to you earlier, but
Intrusion Detection applies to all Windows O/S(s).

You ever get into home networking the below and the other links with in it
tell you the how, why and what.

Links on the main page of the first link on the left hand side links to
Intrusion Detection Systems topic.

If you really want to know how BlackIce IDS/firewall protects, then go to
"H.D. content visible on web" thread in this newsgroup and view my first
post and then the posts between me and Dubios. That should give you the
picture.

Time for bed

Good night
