[AT] OT virus warning

[Lew Best]

I've heard this but never found anyone that could explain how it works
(I have wireless that hooks the modem up thru a nic).  Can you explain
it in general "computer dummy understandable" terms?  I know a router
splits a signal between multiple computers but how does it "stop
anything" or maybe I should say "know what to stop & what to let thru"?

Another thing for you. Your on a cable modem IIRC. Go and buy a cheap 
router and set it up. That will give you a hardware firewall that will 
shut down most crud before it can get to you.
