Vulnerability Development: RE: Online Games Consoles and Security Implications

RE: Online Games Consoles and Security Implications

Quick question, we just allowed our son to start online gaming with his
X-Box.
My wife is using a XP laptop through our home hardwire VPN and noticed a
problem on her system in that Outlook has something running in
background and won't allow for any type of shutdown. My 98win old AMD
system on the same VPN is not experiencing any problems.

What has been found out about allowing these systems to connect directly
to home networks? Are we vunerable?

Thanks,
Greg
