hmm..ok, so im a bit dumb when it comes to pc's..but i know we have to intstall one of their firewall's don't we. well, ive already got norton on mine, so will i have to unistall this or not?

Probably not, but being a computer that ur using it will probably have some conflict and try to kill u when you sleep or soemthing equally dire, so in the end yes probably :biggrin:

It was easy enough, just clicking next/yes etc, but it can be quite time consuming I'm told, depending on how update your PC is

I actually had the mac easiness... but I couldn't for the life of me imagine why it wasn't working. It turned out that I'd done manual configuration on my home network, and had to change those settings (DNS servers, web proxy), but then it was fine.
