Doesn't have to be a dedicated computer. One simple hardware firewall setup for home use is to buy a router if you have high speed access. Almost all, as far as I know, include a hardware firewall. And some like D-Link router can also be hooked up to an external modem for dial-up access. And of course, you get the added benefit of a network setup and shared internet access. -- --Lawrence Kwan--SMS Info Service/Ringtone Convertor--PGP:finger/www-- [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://www.vex.net/~lawrence/ -Key ID:0x6D23F3C4--
