I doubt the people they're referring to are running windows xp.

Also, iirc the windows xp thing only works without a router.

Back in the XP days, PCs were often jacked directly into the internet. Remember having to add a 3rd party firewall like Zone Alarm? :)

I was installing cable internet at the time, my customers out there straight raw dogging the internet.
