    Oh PLEASE!
    
    You clearly have no knowledge of XP _or_ of ISA Server.  Why would you post
    something like this?
    XP has its own fw built in (and is actually pretty cool.).
    
    ISA Server is a MAJOR product!  You think putting it in front of 2 home
    computers is going to show its usefulness?? At $6000 a pop for the ent
    edition, I doubt Danny Diprod is going to rush out to Best Buy to purchase
    it to keep the neighborhood script kiddies from defacing his home web site.
    
    I know you people are just using this thread to bash MS, but you might want
    to at least educate yourselves on the products first, or you are the ones
    that end up looking foolish.
