Do you know of any good hardware firewalls for a dial-up modem user? Question

That's a tough one Kristian... I'd say just run http://zonealarm.com 's free version as a software firewall and that would be pretty secure. If you really want to use a hardware firewall with a dial-up connection you might need to use one PC as the firewall / router / DHCP server and have it dial-up to the ISP, then create a LAN and connect your other machines to it. That would probably work pretty well but might be a bit cumbersome... Hope that helped.

Thanks Scott. I didn't know that there was free firewall software available. That's cool. Smile
