John,
Turning off your wireless connection (Airport) will indeed insulate
you from the wide world of the Internet, assuming that you have no
other wired connection. It will also keep you from accessing any local
network devices -- such as other computers on your network, routers,
network printers, etc.

Much to my chagrin I am going to try loading the Windoze on my
Macbook, but before I do I have one question that I need answered.
When in Windoze I don't want any contact with the outside world,
only the one program I am working on. If I turn OFF "airport" on
the Mac side before I boot to Windoze (using Boot Camp) will that
keep me from being connected via wireless connection once I boot
into Windoze?
If not, what is it I need to turn off in Windoze? Is there an icon
in the header like we have with the Mac wireless? I won't need
Windoze any longer once I get the program that is going to be given
to me rewritten to a database for the Mac so I don't need to worry
about updates, patches and viruses software to keep me safe if I
have no contact with the outside world and once done delete it all.
Thanks so much for your help.
John
