Welcome to the exciting and dangerous world of broadband.
Make sure you have or get an anti-virus program and a firewall.
They are important allies when your internet connection is always on.
Congrats!

Actually, you will want a hardware firewall/router combination. That way you can add more computers to your connection easily.
Like I have at my house.

Most DSL modems have a router built in already.

You should still have a firewall on each computer. Most people with hardware firewalls never up-date them, either by choice or by force (lack of up-dates). Besides, every once in a while, you need to turn that DMZ port on.

i dunno...every ad that'd come up would probably be for english tutoring software and such in response to my lack of proper capitalization and sentence structure...
