Net security on windows is easy if it is done right - you make sure
there is a proper firewall between the PC and the net (i.e., a NAT
router or a properly configured *nix box, or similar), and you tightly
control the software running on the machine so that only safe programs
run - that means no internet explorer, no outlook or outlook express,
and no instant messengers, chat programs, p2p programs, etc.
That reminds me of old versions of NT that Microsoft were extremely
keen to point out had been certified as C2 secure. Even the server
version, however, was only certified if it wasn't on a network...
