For those who do computer repair, there is a good opportunity there.

But we closed our repair shop when my business partner retired.

I don't have time to do it. And, IMO, it is not a job for someone at the installer level. Let alone the fact that doing it on-site is a major time waster.

    I don't believe we can force users off XP.
    Obviously, proper port blocking helps.  Placing your XP users on
    source NAT'ed IP's might help.

Are there other options? Packet filtering? Email filtering? Something else?

        Well, it won't be working for long if they don't upgrade.

        Windows XP security updates end in April 2014.

        Windows XP usage still above 30%.

        Is there anything we, as ISP's, can do to protect our users
        who, for
        whatever reason have not, will not or can not upgrade?

        I have users who won't spend $$ to replace a working system
        if they
        don't see a good reason to.
