    Hello,

    I want to add a hardware firewall to my network and am asking if anyone can suggest a good, secure, reliable unit.

    I have a networs of 1xVista 64 bit PC, 1 x XP PRO 32 bit and 1 x laptop windows NT.

    thanks,,,,

    Yeah, just a decent router, unless you really enjoy playing with Linux, you don't need a firebox for a 3 pc network at home really!
