In my opinion the best thing to do is to go out and spend 50.00 (with a 20.00 mail in rebate) on a Microsoft router. It is very secure and it also is very user friendly for people who do not have a lot of security knowledge. It will keep you secure and you don?t need a computer running 24x7 to keep the connection on.

what if he is running 2000???

I used to have zonealarm (set to medium on internet and low on local). It didnt prevent me from using msn but I switched to a router because I wanted uPnP...

Did I just hear someone use the word "secure" in the same sentence with Microsoft?

Yes, I shuddered when I first typed it in also. I still think they are doing alot better then in the past about security.
