Home network priority
I have 2 PCs and 1 laptop connected through a Linksys router. Both PCs are wired, and the laptop is wireless. One of the PCs is my work (home office) PC, so I would like it to have the priority to connect to the internet.

Windows Defender For XP Released
By Nathan Weinberg
The free Windows Defender is now available for download. Formerly Microsoft AntiSpyware, Defender beta 2 has a simpler user interface, a new spyware/malware detection engine, and can run without admistrator privileges to make running with more security even easier.
It comes in regular and 64-bit versions, and runs on Windows 2000 (SP4), Windows 2003 (SP1) and Windows XP (SP2).
Defender runs unbelievably fast. Initial system scan took four minutes 29 seconds, way faster than AntiSpyware. The new UI means it only takes a click or two to get anywhere. You can disable all the little hidden startup programs, the ones msconfig misses. You can terminate any currently running programs, networking programs or Winsock service providers, although you can't terminate system services (which is probably a bit much for a program so many people  will be using anyway).
Keep in mind that if you intend to get Windows OneCare in April, it will come with Defender. As far as free anti-spyware programs go, my favorite just got even better.
If you can't understand the differences between Defender, OneCare Live, Windows Live Safety Center and other Microsoft security tools, this MS chart should clear things up, or give you a headache (click to enlarge):
