Okay, so hubby has formatted his pc to clear off all the junk. Now he cannot find half the discs that came with it to reload vital programmes, like Norton Antivirus :facepalm:

My question is... I connect to the internet via a broadband modem. I am running Norton Internet Security (antivirus and firewall) and I have also applied the windows firewall to my internet connection in my "Network Connections" section of the control panel. I have two other PC's that are networked to mine via a network switch. One is hubby's. I have also firewalled the Local Area Connection which is how they connect to me, using the windows firewall option. We found hubby an old Norton's Antivirus 2002, that I bought for our first computer, and loaded it up. All is running smoothly, virus definitions are updated. But is he firewalled? Does my firewall on the shared internet connection protect his computer? Or is he in grave danger of being compromised up his back port? ;o)

Thanks in advance for sage advice :o)
