Do yourself a favor, and don't run that software.
Yes, I'm a Linux nut. My attitude towards Windows boxes is: almost all
Windows boxes are so horribly insecure that I don't trust anything to
them, including my full name.
I'm not a Linux nut, but I agree with this in principal. Just using a software firewall is totally insecure. Your best bet, if you don't want to bother setting up a Linux box to act as your go between, is to get a router. You can get a decent router for $35-$50, and that will give you a hardware firewall and NAT. I wouldn't connect any PC direct to a cable/DSL line.
