The biggest concern in my book would be drive sharing. Windows does nasty things with that -- I discovered my machine was sharing a couple of folders in some obscure subdirectory of Windows for read/write access with no password -- by default, when my room-mate was browsing the network. Any Joe could have browsed on in, dropped a gig or so of random files on my drive, and shared whatever he wanted with the world from there.

Lesson learned: periodically check your machine to ensure you're not sharing anything you don't want to share. Go to Network Neighborhood and find yourself, or look up your own machine using the windows search function (start-find-computer, or something to that effect). You can get your network identifying features (like machine name) under Control Panel / Network Settings.

Good luck with that windows nastiness. Let us know how it comes out.
