Hi

I have finally got my wireless connection up and running. I am using a
shared dial up connection and the connected pc has AVG anti virus. Will
this protect my laptop (connected over the wireless network) or should both
ps's have their own.

thanks

Gary

Both computers should have their own antivirus and firewalls installed.
Make sure you properly configure the firewalls to allow the lan as
trusted.
