What you really need is gear from higher shelf, something like Cisco ASA, it can secure both incoming and outgoing traffic, you use access control lists to accurately specify what can and cannot be done. Most likely though you will not be able to stop spam without blocking SMTP port 25 out. If...

Audio drivers for manual install are here. http://www.realtek.com.tw/downloads/downloadsView.aspx?Langid=1&PNid=14&PFid=24&Level=4&Conn=3&DownTypeID=3&GetDown=false

I would suggest using Microsoft Virtual PC 2007 or VMWare for all of you that require XP while running Vista. It is a lot better solution than dual boot OS. dual boot OS is so 90's :)

If your machine is crashing after SP1 than there is something wrong with your installation. My guess would be 64-bit edition you are running has some compatibility issues with some of the supplied drivers. I think if you install 32-bit Vista you'll be a lot happier and you will save yourself...

dilettante - Vista does it differently navigate your windows explorer to the desired folder, hold Shift when you right click the folder and choose "Open Command Window Here" option
