Hi there.
I have a laptop,a desktop and a router to provide them both with an internet connection.
Back when I bought them,I ran the network setup wizard on both of them so that they could share everything with each other...
Over the years everything was fine until the desktop started getting infected with all sorts of crap from the laptop(my friends and family use the laptop to download whatever and stick a bunch of infected flash drives on it.. ).
I'd usually fix the problems before they would break the laptop but now I've had enough.
Is there anyway I could remove the network settings completely so that both computers will never be able to find or interact with each other but still get the internet connection from the same router?.. I hope I don't have to pay for and set up another internet connection just to separate them because that would be a waste of money...
I already turned off file/printer sharing for both computers but some people have told me that that won't save me from network viruses/trojans/worms..
Please help me.. I don't want to have to worry about my desktop while people rape my laptop.
