it is very possible to have an XP workstation that connects to the
internet directly, and is also connected to a LAN. it could even be a
LAN managed by an XP workstation that connects to the internet directly
(sharing the internet connection with the LAN). maybe there are more
than 2 possible configurations.

sorry. it was not clearly stated or implied.
