I setup a home network with workgroup of 3 PCs and 2 laptops, 1 PC XP Professional wired, 2 PCs XP Home (1 wired 1 wireless), both laptops XP Professional wireless. I just switched the XP Home (wired) to XP Pro to install Linux. I use ZoneAlarm Security Suite on all except the PC I just converted to XP Pro on which I have AVG Internet Security. I using a 4-port Linksys wireless-G cable Gateway (WCG200 v2) router/modem connection, ISP is Comcast.
I had 2 system up, one XP Pro w/ZoneAlarm Security Suite (PC1) and the other XP Pro w/AVG Internet Security (PC2). I was ordering something online on PC1 when ZoneAlarm stopped me indicating the site I was on might be a phishing site. I turned to PC2 and pulled up the site. Everything (all my personal info) I had typed into the PC1 showed up on Pc2. BIG BREAK IN SECURITY. I never noticed this before and don't know what I could have done recently to cause this.
Where did I go wrong? How do I ensure what is typed into a browser on one machine doesn't appear on another. I'll be adding another PC (windows 7) to this network in about a month that I'll used just for personal stuff. PC1 and PC2 will be used for business. The laptops are used by family and friends.
Thanks!
