Hi,
So one can rely on the router in place of say EZ-Armor's firewall? I know
that to get my new wireless XP laptop to see & work with the old wired 2K
desktop, it was necessary to add the router's IP address range to both
machines' firewalls as "good guys" (I initially thought it was a case of
cyber-sulk ;-).
I assume this means some config work on the router, which IMHO would be
trickier than with EZ-Armor.
Regard,

If the desktop is XP then you want to be disabling the XP firewall, or
reconfiguring the XP firewall to permit file sharing access. The XP
firewall isn't really needed when the machines access the Internet via a
router.
