Hi,
I've just recently set up a home network consiting of two computers, each running Windows XP. My file, printer, and Internet connection sharing are working fine, but I still have a couple of issues...

1) After much trying, the only way I managed to get my network up and running was by disabling my antivirus software's personal firewall. Is this safe? Or should the personal firewall be enabled on the host computer and disabled on the client computer?

2) I have Mozilla's email client(connected to my ISP's server) running on both computers. When I click 'Get new msgs' on my client computer, is it possible for these messages to also appear in the the email client on my host computer?

Thanks
