Amongst the vitriol, no one answered your posting

your plan is good but I didn't see mention of a firewall
win XP is the only MS product that comes with a firewall

Firewalls are essential these days my firewall log between15:56 and16:31 had
100 hits 16 of these were probably legitimate but the rest were directed to
ICMP and almost certainly the bad guys I'm using zonealarm pro which can
got from www.zonelabs.com if you've a big family it could get pricey,

But after the specified time period, it'll revert to a free version it
won't stop working all that will happen is that you'll lose some trace
functions but it'll still keep the bad guys out
