That's all right. LOL
Linksys are a good bet. Here's some light reading for you. A chap by the name of Steve Gibson. A rather clever cookie, to say the least, IMO: -
Hardware Firewalls/NAT Routers
Linksys BEFSR41

P2P: I forwarded this to my neighboe and told them it was a bad, bad thing. Now they want to know, removing via the Add/Remove Programs will do the trick to make them more secure?

Not really, no, although it will help, naturally. When you use P2P you are leaving yourself wide open. Simple as that, IMO. You will get personal opinions from a wide range of people on this forum and many other quality ones, like the
comment made by Rocket. Personally, I don't use P2P of any kind. The only way to a
clean system is to do a
clean install and keep it clean. Just an opinion.

Yeah, right........ You have absolutely no idea what you are talking about. P2P in itself is nothing more and nothing less than a virii propagation magnet that affects millions of users across the globe. If you use P2P, you just carry on. One of these days, you will get stung. Fact, simple as that.....
