I was on Steve Gibson's site ( http://www.grc.com ) to get a URL to ZoneAlarm for my wife's WinXP
machine and I ran across this:

The HOT setup . . .
My specific recommendations are, of course, subject to moment-to-moment change and reconsideration
in this highly dynamic Internet security market. However, today — as for the past six months — there
is no better and more secure solution than running a single, external, Linksys NAT router (
http://www.linksys.com/products/product.asp?prid=20&grid=5 ) — providing redundant external
intrusion protection — coupled with copies of the FREE ZoneAlarm firewall — providing the PC
industry's most comprehensive internal extrusion management. ( http://www.grc.com/lt/hardware.htm )

Of course ZoneAlarm is not for OS/2. grrr

For those that care, http://www.grc.com/lt/scoreboard.htm is an interesting read as are many of his
pages.
