Thanks everyone for your prompt response, Im not all that familiar with windows OS these days. Im trying in vain to get management to migrate to Linux (with crossover office). Then all my fears and worries will be over.

Thanks again guys, your (hopefully temporary) solution is in place.

I advocate keeping the firewall running on your dialup connection, and any other network connections, at all times.  Expose only the ports that can be positively secured, such as OpenVPN, and keep everything else shut, even when you're not using the vpn.  That keeps your machine secure from worms, hackers, etc. at all times.
