FWIW, I use Norton Internet Security 2002 and regularly unplug from my home network (wired DSL) and/or plug and unplug my PCMCIA Wireless Network card. I also hibernate and resume at different locations (with different network characteristics). Windows XP and Norton are perfectly well behaved, and I haven't had any lockups or hiccups. It may be that earlier Windows versions are less forgiving.
