Long story short, I have an irresponsible sister that uses Internet Explorer and BearShare and miscellaneous festering holes for malware/spyware.

Is there a way I can seperate wireless clients from ever seeing the wired LAN without extra hardware? If not, will removing "Microsoft File Sharing" do the trick?

On second thought, removing Microsoft File Sharing would only solve the "sister act." I also wanna separate other wireless clients for the following reasons:

-If I do allow guests to use our internet, I cannot be completely sure their computers are crystal clean.

-If somebody manages to break into our network, it'd be incredibly easy to mess with our file shares.
