Good security is built in layers. I'm behind a pretty robust center-level firewall also, but learned the hard way that it is not impervious. We've had several cases of bad guys getting through the main firewall and running rampant on the machines inside (mostly those foolish people that were not up-to-date on security patches, and/or Windoze boxes). I run local firewalls on each machine I'm responsible for. I like firestarter for the individual-machine firewalls. Makes it pretty painless. http://www.fs-security.com/ Phil
